description	Read reimbursement net of variable cost by payer, compute blended margin, and model a mix shift — flagging parity for counsel. Reach for this on a payer or margin question.

Skill: Model payer mix and margin

A blended reimbursement number hides which payers drag margin (§3 #5).

Step 1 — Pull per-payer data

Visit volume, reimbursement, and variable cost per visit by payer.

Step 2 — Compute blended margin

Blended reimbursement and margin via behavioral_health_practice_calc.py payer-mix (§3 #5).

Step 3 — Model the shift

New blend vs current blend → mix-shift delta, with capacity caveats (§3 #4 #5).

Step 4 — Flag parity

Parity gaps where behavioral-health rates lag — route the determination to counsel (§3 #5 #8).

Output

A per-payer margin read with the blended figure, mix-shift delta, and parity flagged to counsel.
