In Kaiser Permanente's outpatient clinics, our Physicians and Clinical Assistants work as a team to care for our patients. Our staffing model is $1$ Clinical Assistant paired with $1$ Physician when the clinic is open $($usually $8$AM$-5$:$30$PM$).$ As a result, we track the relative #s of Clinical Assistants and Physicians working in each clinic to ensure balance.

The "Raw Data" tab has the total # of hours that were worked by Clinical Assistants and Physicians for each clinic during the months of June, July and August $2011.$ A "Clinic" is a specific department type at a specific facility like "Pediatrics at Towson" that works as a team. A department is a medical specialty where all of the physicians practice a similar type of medicine like "Adult & Family Medicine" or "Orthopedics". The facilities in this case are also grouped into "Areas" based on geography.
