Daily Encounters (Encounters Listing) Report
The Daily Encounters (Encounters Listing) report is encounter based and displays every encounter for a specified date range. The report is sorted by practice, location name, rendering provider, payer name, financial class, and the encounter date and number. Totals are sum of charge amounts, and average of encounter age, with a subtotal for rendering provider within each practice, subtotal for each practice, and grand total of all practices. You also have the option to show the number of charges per encounter and generate the total sum of the number of charges for all the encounters listed. The totals generated by default include the total per encounter, the total count for all encounters for each provider, each location, and the practice.
