Why examine treatment data according to unique clients and duplicated clients?
At this website, the treatment episode data are examined in two ways. To examine treatment according to unique clients means a client is counted only once, regardless of the number of treatment admissions or episodes in a year. The value of unique client data is that it provides a profile of clients served, in this case by county. Furthermore, treatment episodes for unique clients allow us to show the rates of clients treated, determined by the number or clients treated divided by the corresponding population base for each county. To examine treatment according to duplicated clients’ means that each client treatment admission or episode is counted in a year. The value of duplicated client data is that it is useful for services analysis and capacity planning. Unduplicated treatment episode and admissions data show patterns and amounts of treatment services that are actually delivered, but not information on the actual capacity of programs in a service area.
