Nurse-at-Home, Part VI
The president of Nurse-at-Home is considering accepting Medicare patients next year. However, to do so she must begin to use RNs for client visits, which Medicare reimburses at $45 per visit. An RN costs $35 per hour versus the current cost of $15 for an LPN or nurses' aide. The president believes she can increase her patient visits by 15% by accepting Medicare patients. She is also aware that if she begins accepting Medicare patients, the company's administrative costs will increase by approximately $10,000 per year because of the claims file complexity.
Using the Statement of Income created for the year 2004 in Part I, what is the company's current level of client visits (assuming each visit is equal to one hour of salary costs)? How many more visits will the company generate if it accepts Medicare patients? What would be the estimated profit or loss associated with the Medicare service line?
Would you recommend that Nurse-at-Home begin accepting Medicare patients? Why or why not?
