The Referral Source is a tool that helps you track how patients were introduced to your practice. A list of standard Referral Sources is automatically included in your Practice Settings. Add custom Referral Sources to the list, or edit the existing list items to meet your specific needs. A Referral Source can be associated with a patient on the Additional Info tab of the patient's Demographics.

Note: A Referral Source cannot be deleted if it has been assigned to a patient's Demographics.
