Overview
The Healthcare Configurable Report gives you control over the information included in your report and how that information is presented. Use it to create customized versions of familiar SCOUT healthcare reports, including Insurance Estimates, Demand Forecast, Facilities, and Providers.
When creating a Configurable Report, you can select the geography you want to analyze, determine how multiple geographies are organized, and choose the specific data fields included in the final report.
Create a Geography for the Report
Before running a Configurable Report, identify the geography you want to analyze. Your report can be based on geography types such as:
Drive times
Mile rings
Boundary layers
Areas created using the Ruler tool
Territories
To create a drive time or mile ring:
Locate the appropriate area or location on the map.
Right-click the location.
Select "Add Drive Time/Ring".
