Hospital Costs to Implement
Refer to the Scenario for a Midwest Community Hospital, located in Appendix 26-A
Part 1 of the assignment: Within this scenario the productivity loss for the six-month
learning period is calculated to be $1,233. Beginning with month #1 at $353 ($1.41 times
250 equals $353), compute the cost of productivity loss for the remaining five months as
explained in the scenario, to total an overall amount of $1,233. Be prepared to show and
explain your computations.
