3 Direct costs - allocated to the activity being costed. Direct costs are all those that can be directly attributed to a particular activity or output being measured. Indirect costs - apportioned to the activity as the cost is shared over a number of areas. Indirect costs cannot be directly attributed to a particular cost centre but can usually be divided up between several. Indirect costs need to be split over the various user departments by choosing some rational basis of apportionment Overhead Costs Overhead costs - apportioned over all activities as they are the costs of support services. The overhead costs of premises are the costs of support services which contribute to the general running of the hospital but cannot be directly related to the volume or quantity of activity or service provided in individual services.

Working backwards, Keep repeating this until you have tasks that feel manageable. In order to deliver for Service Redesign I would have to develop a Sticky Steps exercise Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM) PDM network rules: Activities are represented by boxes Precedences are shown by arrows with direction and time properties Precedences consist of two parts: A relationship : Finish to Start FS Finish to Finish FF Start to Start SS Start to Finish SF and a lag value the waiting time between activities mail@.com 4

5 PDM Logic Relationships PDM Logic Relationships Finish to Start (FS) must Finish before may Start. The lag is usually zero. FS is the most common type. Finish to Finish (FF) must Finish before may Finish. The lag value is usually greater than zero. FF is a less common type. Start to Finish (SF) must start before may Finish. The lag is usually greater than either activity duration. FS is the least common type. Start to Start (SS) must Start before may Start. The lag value is usually greater than zero. SS is a less common type.
