Administrative and miscellaneous expenses per patient:<br />

Health Service Management 159<br />

X 35 + d − 35 − d+ 35 = 32.1.<br />

Variable X 36 depicts total per patient expenses at the final year.<br />

X 36 − (X 32 + X 33 + X 34 + X 35 ) + d − 36 − d+ 36 = 0.<br />

(9d)<br />

(9e)<br />

3.2.5. Other Expected Expenses<br />

Installation of the IVR system.<br />

Computers and server replacement.<br />

X 37 + d − 37 − d+ 37 = 600.<br />

X 38 + d − 38 − d+ 38 = 400.<br />

(10a)<br />

The insurance funds.<br />

From Table 2, we see that the average expenses for personnel insurance<br />

amounts to 19% of the total employees’ salary. This is represented by the<br />

following constraint, taking into account the variable X 21 .<br />

X 39 − 0.19X 21 + d − 39 − d+ 39 = 0<br />

Depreciation, laboratory, fixed and other expenses<br />

X 40 + d40 − − d+ 40<br />

= (60,000 + 180,000 + 80,000). (10d)<br />

To sum all other expenses, I introduce the following relation.<br />

X 41 − (X 37 + X 38 + X 39 + X 40 ) + d − 41 − d+ 41 = 0.<br />

(10c)<br />

(10e)<br />

3.2.6. Total Expenses<br />

It is already mentioned that I introduce the variable X 43 in order to sum up<br />

total expenses, in the following way.<br />

X 42 − (X 21 + 3625X 36 + X 41 ) + d42 − − d+ 42<br />

= 0. (11)<br />

3.2.7. Total Gross Profit<br />

The gross profit achievement as set by the decision maker, may be introduced<br />

in the following way.<br />

3625X 43 − X 42 + d43 − − d+ 43<br />

= 750,000 (12)
