Projected ROI Estimates• Half Day Lease/8 exams- 4 hours $550

• Full Day Lease/16 exams- 8 hours $1100

• Avg reimbursement per exam= $150

(determined by taking the 5 most commonly ordered exams and using the medicare reimbursement average x 20%)

8 exams per day x$150= $1200-550= $650 net gain per day

16 exams per day x $150=$2400-1100= $1,300 net gain per day

5 days per week x650= $3250/week 5 days per weekx1300=$6500/week

3250x52= $169,000 6500x52=338,000

While this is not a huge amount compared to other clinic sources of revenue,

it is money that is currently being sent out that could be kept in house.

Furthermore, more applications for ultrasound could be utilized if it were readily available.
