Health financial management report writing for university of Australia

Students are to develop a healthy business case including a zero-based budget that shows skills in breaking down costs for a service or project in relation to planned activity levels and outcomes or deliverables. This business case is to be developed from one of the examples available on VUWS or in discussion with the class tutor.

For your chosen service or health facility prepare a budget for this new service or project. Prepare this in a report format and as outlined in the VUWS website. In preparing the budget students should show the build-up of the budget from a zero base including all significant line items.

A contingency plan must be included (what happens if desired funding is not available to the optimal level desired) with at 10% less than the optimal budget. Show deletions and cost-cutting measures.

Include a financial activity analysis and a break-even analysis chart to show at what level of activity the services ‘break-even’. In the public sector, this plan comes in on budget rather than make a profit.
