You and several of your colleague business partners have decided to establish an outpatient
fertility clinic in your service area. All of you are very familiar with this patient population base,
have completed an extensive market analysis that demonstrated a great need for the service,
and are comfortable with setting up a business and the costs associated with this special group
of patients.
As part of the business plan, you and your partners will need to convince stakeholders that this
new service endeavor will be viable. They will want to know how many patients visits annually
will need to occur and how long it will take for the service to be at least cost neutral or
profitable. To provide them with this information you will perform a break-even analysis. Use the
following data, conduct the analysis accounting for the contribution margin of each patient
acuity category.
• Fixed Costs: $9,788,000 (start-costs, specialty physicians, anesthesiologists,
APNs, staff nurses and other staff salaries, specialty equipment, other
miscellaneous)
• Variable costs: $500/patient visit (specialty equipment, oxygen
supplies, other miscellaneous)
• Clinic days: Monday-Saturday- 305 days/year
• Projected patient visits per year: 7480
• Patient charges by patient acuity category:
o Simple (20%)---------$2000/visit
o Moderate (70%)-----$6500/visit
o Complex (10%)------$10,000/visit
