Assume that Brightview Senior Care has two categories of payers. Medicare pays $75.00 per day, and private pay patients pay the established per diem rate, but approximately 8% of private pay charges are not collected. If 40% of the patients are Medicare and 60% are private pay, what rate must be set to generate $200,000 in profit? Variable costs are $50.00 per day, and fixed costs are expected to be $1,200,000. Expected volume is 60,000 patient days.
