Formation of an Activity Dictionary A hospital is in the process of implementing an ABC system. A pilot study is being done to assess the effects of the costing changes on specific products. of particular interest is the cost of caring for patients who receive in patient recovery treatment for illness, surgery (nonicardiac), and injury. These patients are housed on the third and fourth floors of the hospital. The floors are dedicated to patient care and have only nursing stations and patient rooms. A partial transcript of an interview with the hospital's nursing supervisor is as follows: 1. How many nurses are in the hospital? There are 101 nurses, including me 2.

Mostly monitoring equipment 7. Who or what uses the activity output? Patients. But there are different kinds of patients. On these two floors, we classify patients into three categories according to severity: intensive care, intermediate care, and normal care. The more severe the liness, the more activity is used. Nurses spend much more time with intermediate care patients than with normal care. The more severe patients tend to use more of the faundry service as well. Their clothing and bedding need to be changed more frequently. On the other hand, severe patients use less food. They est fewer meals. Typically, we measure each patient type by the number of days of hospital stay. And you have to realize that the same patient contributes to each type of product.
