How to read these measures

  • “First provider connection” is the first non-revoked provider connection, not a verified provider reply.
  • “Enquiries per provider” uses Carevo's active provider profiles and service-area listings, not a regulatory register or real-time capacity feed.
  • “Connection rate” counts distributed enquiries receiving at least one provider connection. It does not mean a provider accepted the person as a client.
  • Provider acceptance, language-matched availability and the composite score remain withheld.
