How Do You Finance a Geriatric Care Management Business ?
By | October 10, 2018

The financial projection may be mind-numbing to care managers who started an Aging Life or geriatric care management business with an awesome idea and a toolbox of care management skills. But beware– without the tools and skills to make money- your great idea of a private geriatric care management business may end up bankrupt.
Geriatric care managers need to understand revenue- how they make money to be financial to make a profit. Revenue does come from billing – but poor billing is very unprofitable billing. Money-losing billing is anything less than 85% of your client’s time. When you bill less than 85% you actually start losing money. Revenue is the high tide of money and is calculated by the number of client’s you serve, new client’s per month, number of clients canceling service. % of time billed (the goal is 85%) and what you charge for travel time.
Geriatric care managers can become more financially literate about making money by doing a financial projection over a three-year period. You can calculate the number of clients you need to make a profit when you will break even when you can hire new staff.
You can find out awesome facts before you open a care management business by doing this mind-numbing financial projection. Facts you can forecast are how much investment you will need for your business, what the cash flow consumed in the business will be, the number of client’s you need to make a profit and most of all when you will break even and rise above low tide– moving to the all-important high tide, through your excellent financial management and care management skills.
So use this financial decision tool for financial projection. Find it chapter 13 of the Handbook of Geriatric Care management 4th edition and watch youtube 5 Financial Projection below. Become a geriatric care manager with financial skills to make a Profit.
