<h1>New Parent Organisation</h1>
<p class="classname">
The referral source for a request is generally either a hospital or a GP
clinic. Hospitals within a region generally share clinicians, and these
regions are defined as Parent Organisations, as originally designated by
the Connecting for Health organisation.
</p>
<p class="classname">
Alhough technically GP clinics don't have Parent Organisations, because
each referral source in HiLIS requires a parent organisation, GP clinics
use their practice code as the parent organisation.
</p>
<p class="classname">
Hospital organisation codes always have 3 characters, and GP surgeries
& clinics have 6 characters. These details should in the first instance
be supplied by CfH documentation. Non-UK locations will require
user-defined codes. See examples below.
