Caseload in Direct Support of Program


Report each caseload figure as a whole number, never a range. Details the structured fields cannot capture such as species mix, seasonal variation, or alternate program structure should be included in Additional Details about Caseload below.

The Average Daily caseload numbers are based on the number of workdays per year. If the yearly caseload is seen 5 days per week, divide by 260. If the yearly caseload is seen 7 days per week, such as emergency services/ECC, divide by 365. Round each to the nearest whole number.

Number of patients presented to the hospital annually. Include only the patients presented to the hospital(s) (small animal, large animal, equine, all) to which the intern will be assigned. Support services (radiology, anesthesia, and similar) typically serve all hospitals so the combined caseload (all hospitals) should be counted.
Number of outpatients seen by the hospital(s) to which the intern will be assigned, divided by the number of workdays.
Number of inpatients seen by the hospital(s) to which the intern will be assigned, divided by the number of days the hospital is responsible for care. Most hospitals have inpatients 24/7 therefore divide the inpatient caseload by 365 days.
Number of surgical procedures performed in the hospital(s) to which the intern will be assigned, divided by the number of workdays.
Number of emergencies seen by the hospital(s) to which the intern will be assigned, divided by the number of days per week emergencies are received (typically 365 days).
Use this space for anything the numbers above do not capture: species mix, seasonal variation, or alternate program structure. See the definitions page for illustrative examples.
