Medaco Ltd customers often ask us “What affects the cost of Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) service rates and LOLER inspections?” While this question seems straightforward to answer, many variables influence the cost. Care homes, hospitals and SEND schools are all under the pressure of squeezed budgets and increasing operational costs. So, we thought we would provide transparency on what is considered in the price of PPM service rates and LOLER inspections through our article https://hubs.ly/Q02qsg980 and video https://hubs.ly/Q02qsd1t0 to help care providers in their quest to optimise their spending and create operational efficiency. #LOLER #PlannedPreventativeMaintenance #CareHomes #SENDSchools #Hospitals #Budget

Ambulance alarming in more ways than one Just like most aspects of life in Taiwan, it looks impressive until you look beneath the surface. The private-sector-run ambulance service in Taiwan suffers from many problems that most citizens are unaware of. That hospitals collect from patients in advance for calling ambulance to then split the fee with operators. Some hospitals are obviously greedy to take half of such fee, forcing operators, whose fees have not been adjusted for 10 years, to scrimp on equipment so as to stay profitable. One operator says buying cheaper equipment is just one way to stay afloat in a market brimming of undersellers. He has heard of using industrial oxygen for patients can't tell the difference. The state-run ambulances that answer to 119 calls are not equipped with expensive ventilators that can save critically injured patients. Operators tell family in case of death that it is due to patient's physiology rather than lack of proper equipment. Private ambulances, unlike vehicles carrying rehab and handicapped patients, don't qualify for subsidies for the laws don't specify whether they are in the logistic or healthcare trade. There are even unregistered ambulances with untrained attendants on the roads. Yet the health authorities say such ambulances are not in their jurisdiction for being unregistered. The governing party is the motor vehicle branch for the vehicles have been repurposed illegally. More unsettling details are in the attached report of Aug. 7, 2024. #AmbulanceAlarmingInMoreWaysThanOne https://lnkd.in/guBk_BZc

How Much Variation Should There Be in the Pricing of a CT Scan, from the *Same* Provider in Michigan? Here's a real life example of from one of finHealth's clients. The names have been changed to protect the innocent (until proven guilty).   This is the actual distribution of CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis with contrast in the Michigan region – all from the same provider. Typical cost at this facility is $400, but here we also see this same provider exceeding $2,700 on multiple occasions. Why does the contract allow much significant pricing variation for the same service from the same provider? Is your BUCA contract allowing for this? Do you know? 𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘? #healthcare #cost #fiduciary #howwouldyouknow
