Explain the differences between fixed costs and variable costs
What is the cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis? And Why is it so useful to health services managers?
What are the critical differences in profit analysis when it is conducted in a capitated environment versus a fee-for-service environment?
To get a better handle on cost behavior, what are some specific examples of variable, fixed, and mixed (semi-fixed) costs in our own personal lives.
Operating leverage can be risky. When does an organization benefit from having a high degree of operating leverage? When does it lose from having a high degree of operating leverage?
Between, Fee-for-service, Capitation, and salary. The current trend is toward Capitation. Will this improve quality or profit more?
If you are a healthcare administrator, as the affordable Healthcare Act is implemented, would you prefer a relatively high level of fixed costs or a relatively low level of fixed costs.
