...Lakeside Hospital A hospital just can’t afford to operate a department at 50 percent capacity. If we average 20 dialysis pa- tients, it costs us $425 per treatment, and we’re only paid $250. If a department can’t cover its costs, includ- ing a fair share of overhead, it isn’t self-sufficient and I don’t think we should carry it. Peter Lawrence, M.D., Director of Specialty Services at Lakeside Hospital, was addressing James Newell, M.D., Chief Nephrologist of Lakeside’s Renal Division, concerning a change in Medicare’s payment policies for hemodialysis treatments. Recently, Medicare had begun paying independent dialysis clinics for standard dialysis treatments, and the change in policy had caused patient volume in Lakeside’s dialysis unit to decrease to about 50 percent of capacity, producing a corresponding increase in per-treatment costs. By February of the current fiscal year, Dr. Lawrence and Lakeside’s Medical Director were considering closing the hospital’s dialysis unit. Dr. Newell, who had been Chief Nephrologist since he’d helped establish the unit, was op- posed to closing it. Although he was impressed by the quality of care that independent centers of- fered, he was convinced that Lakeside’s unit was necessary for providing back-up and emergency services for the outpatient centers, as well as for treatment for some of the hospital’s seriously ill inpatients. Furthermore, although the unit could not achieve the low costs of the independent cen- ters, he disagreed...

...assignment 1 CASE Lakeside Hospital Financial information & decision making bm01Afm 2015-2016 The abovementioned students declare that this report contains original work and all the team members equally contributed to its preparation. Question 1. To calculate the break-even volume for the dialysis unit we first assume that every patient receives three treatments a week, 156 a year. We use the numbers of last year to calculate the break-even volume as stated in exhibit 1 and 2 of the case. We assume that the allocated expenses and all other costs, except for the major equipment depreciation, stay the same. Since the 14 machines cannot be sold after four years and they are for already five years in the company, we define this as a sunk cost and the major equipment depreciation is not included in the calculation of the break-even volume. The fixed costs are the salaries and wages as stated in Exhibit 2. The supplies and purchases services are not included since they differ according to the number of treatments provided. The fixed costs are therefore 438,900 + 71,970=$510,870. However the annualized salaries have decreased by 84,000 and the fringe benefits by 8,400 and the major equipment depreciation of 26,250 is not included anymore. The fixed costs decrease to $392,220 (510,870 – 84,000 – 8,400 – 26,250 =$392,220). The allocated expenses are $277,267, which makes total fixed costs of (277,267+392,220) $669...

...HBSP Product Number TCG239 THE CRIMSON PRESS CURRICULUM CENTER THE CRIMSON GROUP, INC. Boulder Public Schools Edward Caton, a teacher in a midsize elementary school in Boulder, Colorado, hoped someday to rise through the administrative ranks to serve as a principal of his own school, but he felt that to do so, he should understand more about the position to which he aspired. This was especially important to him in terms of the control he might have over the budget, which he knew was central to real power in many organizations. In an effort to learn more about the operations of the Boulder Public Schools, he set up some informational interviews with the principals of an elementary school, a middle school, and a high school. Before making those rounds, he visited the headquarters of the Boulder School Committee to obtain background information for his interviews. BACKGROUND Mr. Caton learned that the Department of Implementation (DI) was central to the school system. It’s manager reported directly to the Superintendent of Schools. The DI was responsible for making school enrollment projections each December for the coming fiscal year (which ran from July to June). These projections were important since annual staffing needs for each school were determined by a rather complex formula that used the DI's projections as the starting point. Moreover, since personnel formed the bulk of the budget, these projections effectively determined a school's budget. Each school...

...Student name Institution name Date Introduction Question: Is the policy of eminent domain providing for the public welfare, through the taking of privately owned property, using a rightful procedure involving due process and just compensation as it was intended to do when the policy was founded? Eminent domain is the inherent power of the government to take over a citizen's property for public use without the owner's consent. Initially, this public policy originated in the Middle Ages throughout the world. It became part of the British common law before reaching the United States where it was then illustrated in the US Constitution in 1791 (Britannica: eminent domain). The Fifth Amendment granted the federal government the right to exercise eminent domain, provided protection to individuals, and protected the property rights of citizens. Shortly after the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment made the federal guarantee of “just compensation” applicable to the states. The use of eminent domain power to promote economic development, particularly in urban centers of the United States, has become the focus of significant controversy in this present day. This is commonly done when the acquisition of property is needed for the completion of certain project. Projects intended for the public good such as highways, bridges, schools, and government buildings have been created from Eminent Domain. The policy pertains to every independent government. It requires very little...

The decision alternatives are those actions from among which the decision maker must choose. That is, they are the aspects of the decision situation over which the decision maker has direct control. The states of nature are those aspects of the decision situation over which the decision maker does not have direct control. They certainly include things over which there is no control, such as the weather, the general state of the economy, or actions taken by the national government. They may also include things which can be influenced to some extent but not completely. The market response to a new product (which is partly determined by...

... The high ground furnished settlers a safe haven from annual flooding. Joseph Bonne, a fur trader and trapper of French and Quapaw ancestry, settled on this bluff in 1819. In 1829, Thomas Phillips claimed a half section of land where Pine Bluff is located. Jefferson County was established by the Territorial Legislature, November 2, 1829 and began functioning as a county April 19, 1830 (Wikipedia, 2014). The city prospered due to cotton production in 1860 and had one of the largest slave populations in the state. The city was devastated by the Great Flood of 1927 and the severe drought of 1930. The Army built the Pine Bluff arsenal and Grider Field in 1945. Major construction projects during the 1960s and 1970s were Jefferson Hospital (now Jefferson Regional Medical Center), a Federal Building, the Pine Bluff Convention Center complex including The Royal Arkansas Hotel & Suites, Pine Bluff Regional Park, two industrial parks and several large churches. In the late 1980s, The Pines, the first large, enclosed shopping center, was constructed on the east side of the city. The mall attracted increased shopping traffic from southeast Arkansas. The most important construction project of the 1990s was the completion of a southern bypass, designated part of Interstate 530. Carl Redus became the first African American mayor in the city's history in 2005. On November 6, 2012, Debe Hollingsworth was elected to be the next mayor of Pine Bluff, winning 49% of the vote (Wikipedia...

Map & Identification of Geographic Boundaries: Orlando has several city that border it including Ocoee to the West, Winter Park and Altamonte Springs to the North, Titusville to the East, and Saint Cloud to the South. C. Historical Evolution of the Community: Orlando can be dated as far back as 1836 during the Seminole War where new settlers fought to gain the territory against the Seminole Indians. There are differing stories about where the name Orlando came from but one of the most popular ones involved a man named Orlando Reeves who died during a sneak attack from the Indians. After the Civil War there was a population explosion which lead to the city being incorporated. Orlando was known as Florida’s citrus hub between the years 1875-1895. The city started to become a major tourist destination between the Spanish-American War and World War I.
