What counts as a material move?

Step by step

Before you start. MoM on the Rates tab is the month-over-month change in a payer's median for a code.

1. 1MoM compares a payer's median in the latest month of data with its median in the month before, in the same place. The footer under the table names both months.
2. 2A move is material when it is at least 5% and at least 50 cents, both at once. Material moves show in bold.
3. 3The Material moves tile above the table counts them for the place on screen, and the other filters do not change it. On a code page, the Last move column reads the same way.
4. 4A dash means that payer has no rate for the month before. With only one month of data, the footer reads MoM needs two loaded months.
5. 5Sort starts on Largest MoM move, which puts the biggest moves first, up or down.
6. 6Rate alerts on a watched code use a separate threshold. Unless a row has its own, an alert needs a move of at least 5% and $1.

Tip. Once you watch a code, click Alert threshold on its row to set your own percent and dollar floor.
