- Synopsis
- The case describes a pilot project on applying activity-based costing to measure the cost of treating patients. After an overview of Boston Children's Hospital and its local health care market environment, the case presents process maps and financial data relating to patients making office visits to a plastic surgeon for three different diagnoses. Students use the hospital's existing cost system and a proposed new system, based on time-driven activity-based costing, to calculate and compare costs and margins of the three types of office visits.
