Divide collections by visits to get revenue per encounter — with per-provider splits, the practice comparison metric that actually moves decisions.
The practice’s unit economics
Revenue per visit is the practice’s unit price: collections divided by encounters. It rolls payer mix, coding accuracy, service mix and collection performance into one comparable number — trend it monthly, split it by provider, and the outliers point straight at their causes. Enter the period’s collections and visits, plus the provider count for the per-provider view.
How to use it
- Enter collections for the period (cash basis — what actually arrived).
- Enter the visit count for the same period.
- Add providers to see per-provider visits and collections.
The formulas
A worked example
$185,000 collected across 925 visits is $200 per visit — and across 5 providers, 185 visits and $37,000 each on average. The number only becomes useful in comparison: a provider at $160 against peers at $210 with the same payer mix is usually a coding-level story; the same gap with a different payer mix is a scheduling story — the metric tells you which question to ask.
Estimates only — payer contracts, plan documents, published fee schedules and the EOB are the source of truth, and nothing here is billing, legal or medical advice. The calculator runs entirely in your browser: no patient data is entered, transmitted or stored.
