Filter your data to a 12 month period using a WHERE statement.

I've included 2 samples below, they will evaluate to the same condition. Only one should be included at a time. Depending on your data there may be other ways.

 

proc means data= mf_encounterdays;
where date between "01Jan2015"d and "31Dec2015"d;
*Where year(date) = 2015;
var tot_enc;
run;
