With the Referral Maintenance utility, you can delete referral destinations that are not associated with any outbound referrals that are attached to patients' records.
To delete a referral destination
In the Referral Maintenance dialog box, select a referral destination in the Referred TO list.
Notes:
If the Referred TO list is long, to search for a referral destination, begin entering a referral destination's name in the Referred TO box. As you type, the first matching referral destination in the list is selected automatically.
The number of outbound referrals that a referral destination is associated with appears in the Count column. You can delete a referral destination only if the number of referrals is zero (0).
To find the patients who have outbound referrals that a referral destination is associated with, run the Referred To Doctor Report.
Click Delete.
Note: This button is available only if the selected referral destination is not associated with any outbound referrals.
The referral destination is deleted.
