Create or Edit an Inflation Profile for a Provider on the Inflation Tab

Built-in service providers have default inflation profiles associated with them. You can also set default inflation profiles for user-defined providers from the Maintain menu.

When using a ClearTrial built-in provider, or a user-defined provider with an established profile, you can use the default inflation rates, plan-specific inflation rates, or no inflation at all. Access the inflation table in the plan and make updates as needed.

Note:

To use plan-specific inflation rates only for specific locations, override the default ClearTrial values with your values per location. Leave the ClearTrial defaults in the remaining locations in the event one of those remaining locations is later included in a plan.
  1. On the Provider tab, click a Provider Name to display the Specify Provider-Specific Details screen.
  2. Click the Inflation tab.
  3. In the Compound inflation annually field, select Yes or No.
  4. To change inflation rates for the selected service provider, enter the new rate for each location for each year.
  5. To remove a single override, highlight the value in the cell and press the Delete key.
  6. To remove all overrides, click Clear Overrides.
  7. To reset the inflation rate to zero, click Set Inflation to 0%.
  8. Click Ok.

Tip:

To quickly update the inflation table to your desired rates, override only the default inflation values for the locations included in the plan. Oracle recommends that you leave the ClearTrial default values in the unused locations in the event a user adds new locations later and does not revisit the inflation table. If you prefer to model a plan without inflation, click Set Inflation to 0%.
