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