What is
a
Capital Expense Budget for Healthcare Providers
? Capital Expense ("Capex") budget forms are considered a key part of annual budget models and are often used by budget managers, purchasing managers and department heads to plan future asset purchases. Key functionality in this type of budget template includes drop downs to choose asset type, department, and purchase month. The average lifetime of the asset typically comes from an assumption and will automatically calculate the monthly depreciation amount. After the user enters purchase price and quantity, everything else calculates automatically. Total depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation end up on the P&L and Balance Sheet budgets. Typically, this template is used for each healthcare facility with all their departmental asset purchases contained within the same form. You will find an example of this type of budget template below.
Purpose of
Capex Forms Hospitals and clinics use Capex Forms to request funding for asset purchases and to capture comments and details that will help in the approval process. When used as part of good business practices in a Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) department, a healthcare organization can improve its expense control and asset procurement plans, as well as, reduce the chances of budget overruns due to unforeseen investments.
