Product Description:
Mammography facilities have long struggled to turn a profit in the face of low reimbursement. But many facilities miss opportunities to make more money by operating at less than maximum capacity, says Gerald Kolb, chief knowledge officer at Solis Women's Health in Austin, TX.
When it comes to mammography, the majority of costs are fixed. "A rule in accounting and economics is when costs are fixed, the only way you can lower the cost per unit sold or cost per mammogram is by increasing volumes," says Kolb. "Running a halfway-utilized breast center just doesn't work."
