<h1>New Referral Source</h1>
<p class="classname">
Add a new referral source. Options are:
</p>
<ol id="id">
<li>GP practice</li>
<li>hospital (everything except GP practices)</li>
</ol>
<h4>Organisation code</h4>
<p class="classname">
Organisation code should be taken from the NHS "Organisation Data Service"
libraries, available as links from the 'New Referral Source' page
(eg hospital, practice, independant, prison, etc). The organisation code
is normally 5 characters in length (eg RR801, B86044, etc).
</p>
<h4>Location type</h4>
<p class="classname">
Selection of the location type opens new form fields:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>hospitals</dt>
<dd>display name</dd>
<dd>parent organisation</dd>
<dt>practices</dt>
<dd>practice name</dd>
<dd>practice address</dd>
<dd>post code</dd>
</dl>
<p class="classname">
Details for these fields can normally be copied from the Organisation Data
Service libraries used for obtaining the organsiation code. All fields
are required.
</p>
<h4>New hospital</h4>
<p class="classname">
When registering a new hospital, the 'display name' field shoud normally
consist of the first part of the 'Details' section of the Organisation
Data Service library used for obtaining the organsiation code.
</p>
<p class="classname">
A parent organisation should also be selected, normally this would have
the same first 3 characters of the organisation code, eg RCF22 (Airedale
General Hospital) would correspond to RCF :: Airedale NHS Trust. If the
parent organisation is not available (eg new overseas referral source),
a new one can be created using the link to 'New' on the 'Parent Organisation'
field.
</p>
<h4>New practice</h4>
<p class="classname">
When registering a new practice, the first part of the
Details section should be used for the 'practice name' field, and the rest
of the Details section is used for the 'practice address' and 'post code'
fields.
