q2 · i? · design · r2

WestEd's analysis of interviews and supplemental service data from five SHCs (A–E) estimated potential Fee Schedule revenue from services not currently billable; Table 1 prints estimates from $25,437.60 to $147,406.80 against projected 2024–25 billing revenue. The authors state the calculations "included significant guesswork and assumptions."

"Table 1 illustrates that there was significant variation in the estimates of potential billing revenue available through the Fee Schedule across SHCs in Alameda County."
