		Data on ATC workload is incomplete. Many SME's did not maintain data
		once patient counts were reported to the ATH. ATM's did not report ATC
		workIoads separately. Supported populations continued to grow throughout the
		deployment. Some SME's may have counted immunizations or other services in
		their patient visit totals while others did not.
