Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
Personal services includes:
100 drivers, 25 for each hospital
4 coordinators, 1 at each hospital
1 manager to oversee the program
Current expenses consists of purchasing 15 vans at $35,000. The existing vans are aging and most, if not all will need replaced over the next few years.
The "Other" cost is for automobile insurance for the vans and drivers through BRIM.
The annual cost should be fairly consistent. The largest variable will be the cost of vans. Some years will require more vans to be purchased than others. Vans will be placed on a rotation schedule for replacement, but mechanical issues and loss will also need to be taken into consideration.
