Data Dashboard
You may enter your confidential practice key performance indicators on the “Data Input” page. Definitions for the requested information and calculations used can be found under these headings on the data input and dashboard pages. Once data input is complete, you may go immediately to the “Data Dashboard” to view your practice KPI data and the trends associated with them. Explanations for each are located on the input and dashboard pages as well.
Note that the KPI charts are presented in Trailing 12 month month format. This format is used so that each data point on the chart represents the previous 12 months of data, which will effectively remove seasonality from the trend lines in the data. This allows you to see the real change in this month's data from last month's data, as the only data that differs is this month's data point. The trailing 12 month format is a very powerful tool!
