Practice break-even calculator

Estimate completed visits needed to cover entered costs, then scheduled visits implied by a completion assumption. This is a business arithmetic tool, not a pricing recommendation or demand forecast.

How the estimate works

Contribution per completed visit = R − V
Required completed visits = ceil((F + O) / (R − V))
Required scheduled visits = ceil(required completed / C)
Average scheduled per working day = scheduled / D

Worked example

F=$3,000, O=$4,000, R=$150, V=$20, C=80%, D=20
Contribution $130; completed ceil(7000/130)=54
Scheduled ceil(54/.8)=68; average 3.40/day
With O=0: completed 24, scheduled 30, average 1.50/day

If R ≤ V: “No finite break-even result under these assumptions.”

Not included

Tax, startup recovery, debt and unentered expenses are excluded.
Owner compensation is a target allocation, not a guaranteed wage.
No health, patient or actual payment information is submitted to the publisher.

A financially required appointment count is not evidence the market will supply it or that a practitioner has capacity.
