• Total Auth Hours based upon date range of auth and what that auth is

• Scheduled Hours show how many hours of that service has been scheduled

• Unscheduled Hrs shows how many hours you have left to schedule

• Verified Hours show how many of those scheduled hours have been verified/completed

• Scheduled Auth shows where you are at in the authorization; It is the percentage being utilized towards the total auth

  • For example, if the scheduled auth is at 30% and there is one month left of that auth, you would know to start scheduling more appointments

• Sched Goal shows where you are at in your utilization towards the total scheduling goal

• Number of days until expiration, Status, and Rendering Provider as listed on the auth
