"samples" to calculate 95th percentile, so a missed sample is equivilent to a 0 sample. A rate can be interpolated for the missing time, but it is pretty much guaranteed not to be accurate, and I'd suspect a case could be made against a provider who "makes up numbers" because of a failure in their billing system.
Or, just take the next sample and divide it by 10 minutes, rather than 5, and count it as two samples in the 95th calculation.
