Discuss the impact of the various reimbursements (e.g., Medicare, Medicaid, private, or self-pay). From the Front Lines: We recently purchased an endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), which allows doctors to examine the linings of the esophagus and stomach, as well as the walls of the gastrointestinal tract. It is a necessary, but expensive, piece of equipment, which cost us $20,000 ($11,000 to purchase, plus $9,000 for renovations). Our fixed costs are four full-time equivalent employees at $336,000. Medicare payments are $885 per procedure, and each procedure requires $175 in average variable costs. It has been estimated that we will complete 500 procedures in the first year and 850 procedures in years 2 to 5.
