Sigma Computing Consulting for Infusion Centers
Stop spending the first days of every month building reports in Excel. We build Sigma reports for chairs, referrals, denials and drug margin, loaded every morning from one central database.
The short answer
Where the Hours Go Today
- Someone exports from the EHR and billing system and merges spreadsheets every month.
- Each site counts chair time and visits a little differently.
- Nobody can say quickly how long referrals take to reach a first treatment.
- Denials and drug margin show up weeks after the visit, when they are hard to fix.
Sigma Workbooks We Build
- Chair Utilization
- Chair-minutes of completed visits ÷ available chair-minutes (chairs × open minutes), by site, day and hour. No-shows and same-day cancels are left out.
- Referral to First Treatment
- Days from referral to first infusion, with the steps in between, so the intake team can see where patients wait.
- Denials and Collections
- Denials by payer, reason and drug, next to what was billed and collected, so the billing team works the largest problems first.
- Drug Margin
- What each drug costs against what it is paid, by payer and site, so owners can see which visits make or lose money.
- Multi-Site Rollup
- The same measures for every site on the same definitions, with a scheduled PDF to each site manager showing their own site.
Why Sigma Fits
- Feels like a spreadsheet
- Managers and finance staff who work in Excel can filter, sort and add their own columns without learning a new tool from scratch.
- One set of numbers for every site
- Every report reads the same central database, so sites stop counting chair time and visits in different ways.
- Reports that arrive on their own
- Sigma can email each site manager a PDF filtered to their own site on a schedule, so nobody builds and sends it by hand.
Data We Connect
- Infusion EHR
- Scheduling system
- Practice management and billing system
- Payer remittance files

Common questions
Is Sigma good for infusion center reporting?
Yes, for centers that want their EHR, billing and drug data in one place and staff who are used to Excel. Sigma gives them a familiar grid on data loaded every morning.
How do you measure chair utilization?
Chair-minutes of completed visits ÷ available chair-minutes (chairs × open minutes). No-shows and same-day cancels are left out, and when there are no chair-in and chair-out times we use the scheduled length of each completed visit.
Can Sigma roll up reports across several infusion sites?
Yes. Every site reads from one central database on the same definitions, so the rollup and each site view always agree.
Do we need a data team to run it?
No. We set up the central database and the reports, and train your staff on the parts they will change. The data loads every morning without anyone touching it.
How long does a Sigma build take?
It depends on which systems you use, how many sites you have and how much history you want. We scope it on a short call, starting with one report.
