To estimate the monthly maintenance cost for the maintenance department in a hospital, the following monthly costs are available: Monthly Expense Supervisor Salary Expense Depreciation Expense-Maintenance Equipment Repairs Expense-Maintenance Equipment Supplies Expense Wages Expense-Maintenance Workers $10,000 The Supervisor Salary Expense and the Depreciation Expense are fixed costs. The remaining expenses are variable costs. There are 1,000 patient days in a month, which is the cost driver for maintenance costs. Estimate the cost function where Y is the monthly maintenance cost and X is the variable cost per patient day.

To compute a daily rate that reflected the difference in demands, patients were placed in three categories according to illness severity, and the following annual data were collected: Cost of Activity Activity Driver $ 546,780 2,132,200 441,630 4,185,700 $7,306,310 Activity Lodging Monitoring Feeding Nursing care Total The demands associated with patient severity are also provided: Severity Patient Days Monitoring Hours Nursing Hours High Medium Low 7,170 10,180 3,680 $ Patient days Monitoring hours used Patient days Nursing hours High severity Medium severity Low severity 15,170 12,030 3,260 133,100 72,900 14,300 Required: 1. Suppose that the costs of daily care are assigned using only patient days as the activity driver (which is also the measure of output). Compute the daily rate using this unit-based approach of cost assignment. If required, round your answer to the nearest cent. per day 2.

Question: Assume that an HMO's capitation payment to PCPs is $20 PMPM, but 15% of this amount is placed in the PCP risk pool. The budgeted amount for specialty and hospital costs is $40 PMPM. The purpose of the risk pool is to encourage the PCPs to take actions that cause realized specialty and hospital costs to be less than those budgeted. Cost is measured by the amount the HMO spends on each physician's referral. There are three PCPs: Physician A, Physician B, and Physician C. Assume that each physician has 1,000 patients. Suppose Physician A's actual referral costs are $500,000, Physician B's are $540,000, and Physician C's are $620,00. Finally, suppose that no PCP will receive any funds from the risk pool if it is empty at the end of the year, but if there are referral funds left in the risk pool at the end of the year, they will be divided equally among the three physicians. 1) What is the amount of referral gain (loss) for Physician A? a. -$100,000 b. -$36,000 c. -$20,000 d.…
