Hello GTTJ,
To make it financially sustainable or demonstrating the financial value of the home-based team, I would compare the medium cost of a patient treated at the hospital vs. the patient treated at home.
Using the Time Value Based model learned in module II, what are the total costs of the treatment at the hospital (remember, using all related costs)? What are the total costs of the home-based treatment? How many more patients could you treat if the money used for treating them in the hospital was used invested in a home-based team?
In other words, if you are looking for a financial value, I would make a business case.
