Jason's referral number dot phrase

Jason sent me this great dot phrase this morning that creates a pull-down list of contact numbers for specialty scheduling. I used it this morning in an email to a patient to help her get hooked up with ENT without having her (or me) waste time looking for contact numbers.

.1referral (Central)
.1referralsouth (Tacoma)
.1referraleast (Bellevue)

Giving patients a contact number is easy and removes a barrier to getting good care.

We've heard that patients get lost in transitions between primary and specialty care. This is just one small step, short of introducing them to their specialist, to help make that gap smaller.

I think Jason's referral number dot phrase is excellent, particularly the first one since it contains a "blue" drop down list. Do you think we could add nutrition services to this list? I do refer people to see the nutritionist often and I see that it is not included. Jason? Could you get Kitty to update the list?

Good suggestion. I'll ask. I know she was so busy when she helped me with these that she couldn't put the south and east into the same blue drop down. I'll see what she's able to do. J
