Professional Contacts Overview

CareRight allows you to store details of:

• Any referring practitioner.
• Professional contacts for correspondence such as the patient's GP
• Practice details for a professional contact.

These contacts can then be used in the following areas of CareRight:

• Referrals (Medical Referrals require a provider number to be present on the contact record).
• Letter correspondence.

Professional Contacts is split into three sections 

• Contacts: A medical professional external to your organisation. This may be the Patients General Practitioner or another Medical Specialist treating the Patient.
• Inactive Contacts: These are the list of contacts which have been made inactive - see making a Professional Contact inactive
• Practices:  The medical practice a professional contact works at.

 - See Contacts, Inactive Contacts and Practices for more information.
