I work for a hospital that owns multiple family practice clinics. If the pt goes to one family practice clinic and then decides to switch to another within the 3 years which is still owned by the hospital but just a different clinic. Would the pt be considered a new pt or established pt?

Thanks!

If these family practices all bill under the same tax ID as part of an entity they would considered established.
 
New or established

I work for a primary care office that's affiliated with a larger local Hospital. If a patient comes to our office from another office in our network we consider them established but 'NTO' new to office. Hopefully that helps some?
