Summary: Table 2: This table describes how to convert quarterly, monthly and fortnightly hours to weekly hours when a practice reports changes to previously reported health professional hours.

Hours reported

Formula

Quarterly

(There are 13 weeks in a quarter)

For example:

  • Total quarterly hours reported is 65
  • 65/13 = 5
  • Weekly hours entered is 5

Monthly

Total monthly hours/4

(There are 4 weeks in a month)

For example:

  • Total monthly hours reported is 48
  • 48/4 = 12
  • Weekly hours entered is 12

Fortnightly

Total fortnightly hours/2

(There are 2 weeks in a fortnight)

For example:

  • Total fortnightly hours reported is 30
  • 30/2 = 15
  • Weekly hours entered is 15
