Practice Summary Report

A report of key practice and financial summary metrics.

Written by Meridythe Lanoue

The Practice Summary Report provides a quick overview of key practice and financial metrics for a selected reporting period. It can be used to track the number of new clients and patients seen, as well as the breakdown of total revenue by service.

This report includes all visits during the reporting period, even those with no charges, which may affect certain metrics when comparing it to other financial reports. Note that some metrics exclude open invoices, and all data is based on the invoice closing date rather than the patient check-out date.

Metrics reported based on the date the invoice was closed:

  • Total Revenue Invoiced

  • Total Tax Invoiced

  • Total Discount Amount

  • Average Visit Invoice

  • Totals for Status, Species, Breed, Ward, and Service

The Status, Ward, and Service counts are based on the last value assigned to a patient at the time of check-out. They do not account for patients who saw multiple services, moved through different status boards, or flowed through multiple wards during a visit.

The Practice Summary Report includes the following tabs:

Report Info Tab

The Report Info tab serves as the cover page of the report. It displays the hospital name and location, the date and time range covered by the report, and when the report was created.

Glossary Tab

The Glossary tab provides definitions for column headings throughout the report to ensure clarity.

Terms listed:

Note: All values reflect the reporting timeframe. All revenue amounts are from closed invoices.

  • Total Patient Visits – The number of patient visits that were checked in during the report timeframe. This includes patients that checked in prior to the report timeframe but had not yet been checked out at the start of the report timeframe.

  • Total Patient Non-Visits – The number of non-visit invoices that were created during the report timeframe. This includes both open and closed non-visit invoices.

  • New Patients – Number of new patients during the reporting period

  • New Clients – Number of new clients during the reporting period

  • New Referrers – Number of new referral practices during the reporting period

  • Total Inpatients – Number of inpatients seen during the reporting period

  • Total Orders – The number of orders created during the reporting period

  • Total Treatments – The number of completed treatments during the reporting period

  • Total Revenue Invoiced – Also known as gross sales, the total post-discount amount billed on all invoices closed during the reporting period. While payment captures how much was received, revenue reflects how much was charged

  • Total Visit Revenue Invoiced – The total post-discount amount billed on all invoices closed during the reporting period for visits

  • Total Non-visit Revenue Invoiced – The total post-discount amount billed on all invoices closed during the reporting period for non-visits

  • Total Late Fees – Total late fees for the reporting period

  • Total Tax Invoiced – Total tax billed on all invoices closed during the reporting period

  • Total Discount Amount – Total discount applied on all invoices closed during the reporting period

  • Total Payments (excluding deposits) – Total payments received on invoices, excluding deposits

  • Total Deposits (Pre-Payment) – Total account deposits received

  • Total Refunds (Invoice Payment) – Total refunds on invoice payments, excluding any voided invoice refunds

  • Total Refunds (Account Deposit) – Total refunds on account deposits

  • Total Payments Voided – Total amount of payments that were voided during the reporting period

  • Total Refunds Voided – Total amount of refunds that were voided during the reporting period

  • Average Visit Invoice – The average post-discount invoice amount for all closed invoices with a clinic visit during the reporting period. This excludes non-visit invoices

  • Average Non-visit Invoice – The average post-discount invoice amount for all closed non-visit invoices. This excludes invoices with a clinical visit.

  • Average Client Transaction – The average invoice payment amount per client with charges during the reporting period - ACT is payment-based and averages multiple payments toward the same invoice as separate events. For example, two payments of $200 and $800 toward a $1,000 invoice would average to $500 as payment transactions, even though the invoice total is $1,000. - ACT should not be multiplied by visit or non-visit counts to validate Total Revenue Invoiced, as it does not represent invoice totals.

  • Average Income Per Hour – The average (non-voided) invoice payment per hour during the reporting period

  • Totals by Status, Species, Breed, Ward, and Service – Totals by category on all closed visit invoices. Totals sections exclude non-visit invoices
