Heading: Referral Profiling
Where are your patients coming from? Patient demographics and referral data can provide focus for marketing efforts. Decide which set of yellow pages you will advertise in based on where your patient population lives. Identify the source of your referrals and drill further to find the types of patients (i.e., payer, diagnosis) each referring physician sends to your practice. Determine whether referral patterns have significanltly changed over time. Identify patients that are initially seen in the ER or inpatient setting.

Examples of Referral Profiling
» Trend of new patient volume by referring physician
» Geographic analysis of revenue by patient volume
» Referring Physician - Payer Profile
