The first two columns show the aggregated data (numbers and %) for your organisation and the next two columns show the 'Adjusted' totals and percentage. The number in the 'Adjusted' column is based on a 'virtual' patient to provide complete data without counting patients more than once. Patients who have visited more than one clinic in an organisation's catchment will be counted more than once in the Org column (eg PHN, PENCS or etc) as their data is included in each upload from the individual clinics.Please see this page for more details on how the adjusted column works and how it can be used when combined with filters.

 
The 'Adjusted' column will use the most recent visit on record as a starting point for the virtual patient and remove all other instances of patients with more than one visit. Then PAT CAT will find missing/incomplete fields for the patient in the data uploaded from other clinics and attempt to complete the virtual record.
For example if you have a patient who visited 3 clinics who all uploaded their data to PAT CAT and only one of the three clinics has a diagnosis of diabetes on file, PAT CAT will use the patient record with the most recent visit date. PAT CAT will then go through all reported indicators and check if there are results missing from the most recent record. Anything missing from the original record will be completed using data from the other visits of the patient. If there is more than one result available, the most recent one is used.
This creates a single virtual patient with all available and most up to date information from all clinics visited in the current reporting period.
The Benchmark Report can be saved as PDF file, by clicking the 'Save PDF' button in the top right hand corner of the report pane.
The button allows you to customise which columns are displayed – this makes working with large numbers of clinics easier:
