My office staff put in the patient initially.

Exactly Bert. That's exactly what happens when I sign the note, the window comes up to write the note, and I can't remember who the hell referred me the patient. I then have to close the letter writer because you can't go back to the note or chart and look with the letter writer open. Drives me nuts.

I've worked around it currently with paper that the patient or my staff write down the referring doc on new patients. Still doesn't work on recurring patients. I just have to remember to remember
