Wiki Established vs. new patient within 2 years

[Sherry Sheehan]

If a patient was last seen in your practice within 2 years, transferred care out to a new physician, but is now coming back to your practice.

New or established?

 

[KORBISCHM]

Definitely established. It does not matter if they transferred care. They look at if they have been seen in your clinic within three years they are still an established patient.
