To begin, feel free to download the Appointments report. The Appointments report enables you to download details and records of appointments scheduled within the platform. We will use this report to reconcile client appointments by appointment type, status, and more to calculate your Direct Client Contact (DCC) hours.
Accessing the Appointments Report
From your Ruh Care Dashboard, navigate to Reports > Appointments Report > Select the Date Range > Click the 'Download Report' button (top right) > Generated Reports
This will automatically generate the report within your Ruh Care Documents Library as a CSV file within the Generated Reports folder. You may open it directly from your computer, rename the file, relocate the file within your library, or even delete the file.

Using the DCC Tracker to Calculate DCC Hours
To make tracking your DCC hours easier, we've created a semi-automated tracker template that pulls data directly from your Appointments Report and calculates your hours for you.
How to Use the DCC & Supervision Hours Tracker
Make a copy of the Direct Client Contact (DCC) & Supervision Hours Tracker Google Sheet.
Open your Appointments Report CSV file and press Ctrl/Cmd + A to select all the data, then Ctrl/Cmd + C to copy it.
In the DCC & Supervision Hours Tracker, go to the "Paste Appointments Report Here" tab. Click on cell A1, then press Ctrl/Cmd + V to paste your data.
Your DCC hours will be calculated automatically in the "DCC Tracker" tab, based on CRPO guidelines.
To track your Supervision Hours, simply clear the example in the "Supervision Tracker" tab and manually input your supervision sessions.
How DCC Hours Are Calculated (Based on CRPO Guidelines)
As per CRPO, a standard 45 or 50 minute session qualifies as one hour of DCC.
Free Intro Calls: We count 3 Free Intro Calls = 45 mins = 1 DCC hour.
Therapy Sessions: Each 45-50 min therapy session counts as 1 DCC hour.
Extended Therapy Sessions (80 mins): These are converted into 1-hour equivalents, rounded to the nearest whole number.
Example: 10 extended therapy sessions Γ 80 mins / 60 mins = 13.33 β 13 DCC hours.
