Production Report:
Gross Production
Gross Production can change over time if:
- UCR fees for a specific procedure are edited
- UCR fees are changed at the practice level, and the selected time period includes scheduled procedures, since updates to the UCR fees will impact any incomplete procedures.
- The appointment date is changed and moves either in or out of the selected time period.
- The procedures for an appointment within the selected time period have changed.
- If an appointment is added or removed within the selected time period.
-
To avoid changes to Gross Production:
- Make sure employees do not edit UCR fees on procedures once they are scheduled or completed.
- Make sure employees do not edit the UCR fee schedule.
- Don’t edit, add, or remove appointments in the past.
-
An example of Gross Production and how it changes:
- You completed an appointment with a procedure that has a UCR fee of $100 on April 1st.
- You view your production report for April 1st, and the total gross production is $100.
- On April 15th, you go to the patient’s chart and change the UCR fee on that specific procedure to $90.
- On April 15th, you view your production report for April 1st. The total gross production is now $90.
Net Production
-
Net Production can change over time if:
- Negotiated fee on a specific procedure is edited.
- Negotiated fee on a fee schedule is edited, and the selected time period includes scheduled procedures.
- The final insurance payments + patient payments for a procedure recorded on the claim do not equal the negotiated fees
- The appointment date has been changed
- The procedures for an appointment have changed
- The appointment is added or removed within the selected time period.
-
To avoid changes to Net Production:
- Make sure employees do not edit the negotiated fee schedules.
- Make sure employees do not edit the negotiated fee schedule on procedures that are scheduled or completed.

Adjusted Production
-
Adjusted Production can change over time:
- Throughout the day, as insurance write-offs or patient discounts/write-offs are applied, regardless of what appointment date they are applied to
