PREPARING THE PAPER
Break-Even Analysis Case Study
You and several of your colleague business partners have decided to establish an outpatient fertility clinic in
your service area. All of you are very familiar with this patient population base, have completed an extensive
market analysis that demonstrated a great need for the service, and are comfortable with setting up a business
and the costs associated with this special group of patients.
As part of the business plan, you and your partners will need to convince stakeholders that this new service
endeavor will be viable. They will want to know how many patients visits annually will need to occur and how
long it will take for the service to be at least cost neutral or profitable. To provide them with this information you
will perform a break-even analysis. Use the following data, conduct the analysis accounting for the contribution
margin of each patient acuity category.
Fixed Costs: $9,788,000 (start-costs, specialty physicians, anesthesiologists, APNs, staff
nurses and other staff salaries, specialty equipment, other miscellaneous)
Variable costs: $500/patient visit (specialty equipment, oxygen supplies, other
miscellaneous)
Clinic days: Monday-Saturday- 312 days/year
Projected patient visits per year: 7488
Patient charges by patient acuity category:
o Simple (15%)------------$2000/visit
o Moderate (60%)--------$6500/visit
o Complex (25%)---------$10,000/visit
