BUDGETING FOR BUDGETING FOR NURSING SERVICE NURSING SERVICE

Healthcare organizations are increasingly focused on cost-containment and efficacious use of financial resources Todayrsquos nursing leaders require budgeting knowledge in order to efficiently manage operations in the patient care environment and meet financial targets

Budgets A budget is a detailed financial plan used to carry out organizational goals The budget includes proposed earnings and expenditures as well as details about how resources( money time and people) will be acquired and used The purpose of the budget is to project future plans and costs

Operating budget-deals primarily with salaries supplies and contractual services It is the financial plan for the day to day activities of the organization containing a statement of expected revenues and expenses for the fiscal year

Revenue Budget- includes expected income based on volume and mix of patients rates and discounts

Expense Budget- includes salary and non-salary items that reflect patient care objectives and planned activities for the nursing unit

Cost and Profit

Cost Center-the smallest area for which costs are accumulated They may produce revenue such as laboratory and radiology or not produce revenue such as nursing

Profit Center- a unit where performance is measured in terms of profit the difference between revenues and expenses

Classification of Costs

Fixed Costs-expenses that remain the same such as rent or insurance premiums

Variable costs-expenses that change with changes in volume and acuity

Mixed Costs-may vary with volume but not directly

Direct Costs-affect patient care

Salary (Personnel) Budget

The personnel budget projects the salary costs that will be paid and charged to the cost center It accounts for replacement of staff for benefit time overtime shift differentials orientation on-call hours bonuses and premiums and salary increases

Variance Analysis

The difference between the amount that was budgeted for a specific revenue or cost and the actual revenue or cost that resulted during the course of activities is known as the variance

There is an established level at which a variance needs to be investigated

A variance may be favorable or unfavorable and may be related to patient volume efficiency in relation to nursing care hours provided rates in hourly rates paid or in non-salary expenditures

Position Control- a tool to monitor actual numbers of employees to the number of FTErsquos budgeted

ANALYSIS

1 What can we determine from this positioncontrol document

2 Have we budgeted for enough staff

3 Do we currently have enough staff

4 What additional positions would we need topost

Step one Review past performance

1 As a starting point the nurse executive will require to review the following

a The financial records from prior financial periods as a basis for planning

b The present activities of the nursing division

c The activities that the division plans to institute during the projected financial period

d Those activities the division plans to delete during the projected period

bull Step two Review the organizations goals and projections

bull The nurse executive has to study the organizations goals and financial projections thoroughly - Items in the major budgetary report that affect the nursing department should be determined

bull Step three Review of the variances with higher levels of management

bull Once the goal statement is finished it (together with the actual versus budget analysis done earlier) should be reviewed with higher level management

bull The departmental goals proposed should be carefully considered as well as the variances their causes and proposed corrective actions should be reviewed

bull Once the final statement for the department is in place the new budgeting process can begin in earnest

bull Step four Actual preparation of the budget

bull The actual preparation of a new budget can be done based on a previous budgetary plan or newly proposed plan (if a newly developed or modified service)

bull To complete the budget a budget worksheet is essential Worksheet is a tool used by managers to prepare their budget It includes a number of columns including information about

a) Historic information with old budget

b) Actual numbers with comments explaining the variances

Operating budget-deals primarily with salaries supplies and contractual services It is the financial plan for the day to day activities of the organization containing a statement of expected revenues and expenses for the fiscal year

Revenue Budget- includes expected income based on volume and mix of patients rates and discounts

Expense Budget- includes salary and non-salary items that reflect patient care objectives and planned activities for the nursing unit

Cost and Profit

Cost Center-the smallest area for which costs are accumulated They may produce revenue such as laboratory and radiology or not produce revenue such as nursing

Profit Center- a unit where performance is measured in terms of profit the difference between revenues and expenses

Classification of Costs

Fixed Costs-expenses that remain the same such as rent or insurance premiums

Variable costs-expenses that change with changes in volume and acuity

Mixed Costs-may vary with volume but not directly

Direct Costs-affect patient care

Salary (Personnel) Budget

The personnel budget projects the salary costs that will be paid and charged to the cost center It accounts for replacement of staff for benefit time overtime shift differentials orientation on-call hours bonuses and premiums and salary increases

Variance Analysis

The difference between the amount that was budgeted for a specific revenue or cost and the actual revenue or cost that resulted during the course of activities is known as the variance

There is an established level at which a variance needs to be investigated

A variance may be favorable or unfavorable and may be related to patient volume efficiency in relation to nursing care hours provided rates in hourly rates paid or in non-salary expenditures

Position Control- a tool to monitor actual numbers of employees to the number of FTErsquos budgeted

ANALYSIS

1 What can we determine from this positioncontrol document

2 Have we budgeted for enough staff

3 Do we currently have enough staff

4 What additional positions would we need topost

Step one Review past performance

1 As a starting point the nurse executive will require to review the following

a The financial records from prior financial periods as a basis for planning

b The present activities of the nursing division

c The activities that the division plans to institute during the projected financial period

d Those activities the division plans to delete during the projected period

bull Step two Review the organizations goals and projections

bull The nurse executive has to study the organizations goals and financial projections thoroughly - Items in the major budgetary report that affect the nursing department should be determined

bull Step three Review of the variances with higher levels of management

bull Once the goal statement is finished it (together with the actual versus budget analysis done earlier) should be reviewed with higher level management

bull The departmental goals proposed should be carefully considered as well as the variances their causes and proposed corrective actions should be reviewed

bull Once the final statement for the department is in place the new budgeting process can begin in earnest

bull Step four Actual preparation of the budget

bull The actual preparation of a new budget can be done based on a previous budgetary plan or newly proposed plan (if a newly developed or modified service)

bull To complete the budget a budget worksheet is essential Worksheet is a tool used by managers to prepare their budget It includes a number of columns including information about

a) Historic information with old budget

b) Actual numbers with comments explaining the variances

c) Revenue and costs
