Distribution of contribution margin per day revenues across decades of age and corresponding number of patients. The contribution margin per day revenues of the total patient group and the P1-P3 subgroups form convex shaped curves. Their peaks indicate that the highest per day contribution margins can be realized in age-groups between 40 and 70 years. The right diagram shows that the decade groups over 60 years are the numerically most important groups
