Where new patients came from, over a period, from the referral source on their record. It's only as good as the question reception asks at the first visit.

What it shows

New patients by source counts patients added in the period, by the referral source on their record; a patient added without one is Not specified. It counts the day the record was created, not the first visit.

Filters: a date range with the presets Today, Week, Month, Quarter and Year or a custom range, a location. It needs the clinical reports permission, which Administrators and Practitioners have.

The New patients by source report with New patients, Sources, Top source and Unspecified figures and a table of sources with counts and share.
New patients by source for the year, with Doctor's referral and Google the top named sources and 41 percent unspecified.

Reading it

Headline figures: New patients, Sources, Top source, Unspecified.

Columns: Source, New patients, % of total.

Acting on it

A large Unspecified figure means reception isn't recording the source; make it part of the first visit. Keep the source list short under Referral sources so the report stays readable.
