This metric shows the proportion of available time that has been booked for all rooms in the practice
This metric will show you the information you need to understand how utilised your practice space is by Practitioners. For example, you may be considering costs for renovations to expand or even to relocate, thinking you do not have adequate space in your current setup. However, looking into these metrics may give you some insight into how much time your Practitioners spend in each of these revenue-generating assets.

The sections included in this article relating to Room utilisation are:
Room utilisation
This figure shows the proportion of available time that has been booked for all rooms in the practice for the next 7 days. Higher numbers indicate that the rooms are more utilised. The room allocation is based on the information you provide under Cubiko Settings.
You can use the date filter to look further ahead than the default 7 days, choosing one of the preset date ranges or a custom date range on the calendar.
Utilisation by room
This figure shows the percentage of time that has been booked for each room in the practice for the selected time period. Higher numbers indicate that the rooms are more utilised.
Rooms will only be made available for bookings on weekends if they have been marked to be included in weekend calculations in Cubiko Settings setup.
TOP TIP! Use the filters to filter by Role to view your room utilisation data by Nurses, Doctors or Allied health. If you have a lot of Allied health renting rooms in your practice you can see in this metric how much they are utilising this space and when! Pairing this measurement with any of the billing metrics will also give you greater insight into what each room is generating for your clinic, and any rooms that could help bolster billings by engaging additional practitioners.
Daily room utilisation
This figure shows the percentage of time that has been booked for each room in the practice for each day over the selected time period. This graph shows the data across each day and room in a heat map format so you can see when the rooms are most utilised. Higher numbers indicate that the rooms are more utilised.
Rooms will only be made available for bookings on weekends if they have been marked to be included in weekend calculations in Cubiko Settings setup.
TOP TIP! Use this heat map to easily view days that are under-utilised - this appears as blank white space throughout the heat map. This can be essential in assisting you when rostering Doctors and Allied Health. Reviewing which of your rooms are relatively under-utilised could also provide you with an opportunity to increase income for the business either through an irregular room rental, or additional service fee-paying Practitioners.
