1/: Percentages may not add to total due to rounding.
Each physician is included in his primary practice county as well as in any
county in which he has a secondary practice location. He is counted only
once in the State and HSA totals. Thus numbers by county will not add to
HSA or State totals, nor will numbers by setting add to patient care
totals. For example, a physician with a primary care setting of "Resident"
and a secondary setting of "Hospital" will be counted in each setting, but
only once under "Total Patient Care".
