Add total for groups

[gk17]

Hi, I have a report with 4 groups:

Physician
Facility
Exam
Billing Code

The columns for this report are broken down into "patient types" like Outpatient or Inpatient. In my original report, I did not have the Billing Code group (was added in recently) and I just used a formula to filter out the patient type (ex: PtType = "O" then 1 and used the summary function with that formula to add it all up). The problem with the Billing Code is that there can be multiple codes for an exam. I don't want to count the patient type multiple times. For example, I might have ExamA with a total count of 4 but has 10 billing codes. I want to count the 4 but not the 10 in my total.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

If there is not a unique identifier for the exam, then you can create one with a formula like:
{ExamType}&' '&{ClientID}&' '&{ExamDate}

Then do a DistinctCount of that formula or the unique identifier.
