The same layout and functionality will remain for the outgoing referrals but the addition of the status dropdown will be included. This allows for you to categorize your outgoing referrals into different statuses as well.

Within the Global Outgoing Referrals, you will now have the opportunity to create new referrals from the global tab instead of only from the patient-level.

Below this, it will indicate the title of the referral or the specialty that you are sending the outgoing referral for.

When you open the right-hand info panel, you will see the same dropdown fields that are found within the Global Referrals. You can view all of the patient's referral details by selecting this icon.
