Field notes
The calculator lets a practice check its monthly estimate using its own numbers, alongside a one-page explanation of what APCM requires. For respondents reached by fax, a four-character URL suffix loads the survey with an estimate already entered. The page says findings will be reported in aggregate and that no respondent will be contacted unless they ask.
