PATIENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Reading the Last Page of PMP Summary Sheets All PMP Summary Sheets offer the same information on the last page. The only difference is in the totals due to the reporting period you choose. Understanding the details, totals, and how PMP gets those totals will help you make decisions and complete statistical reports. Look at the last page of your summary sheet: If you are trying to balance your receipts with your summary sheet look for the field Total Patient Payments. Also shown in the first column is Doctor of Record. This indicates the breakdown of fees generated by practitioners treating other doctor's patients. 1. Total Patients Seen refers to the number of individual patients who have been treated during the reporting period. For instance, on your yearly summary sheet a patient who is adjusted once a month will count as 1 Total Patients Seen and 12 Subsequent Visits. 2. Subsequent Visit Claims refers to the total number of transactions posted from your treatment fee schedule. By dividing the Total Visit Claims by Total Patients Seen you are now able to calculate the average number of patient visits. This is a statistic that many management consultants utilize. 63 | Reports
