Allow admit to referral in between programs
Currently, you only have admit to another program and then you have to bump it back to a referral to keep a bunch of information. However, if anything has been billed, it will not let us bump it back to a referral which completely messes up our data in between programs. It even allows us to admit from residential as a referral but not from our own GCM programs on the same side. We have clients that step up and down in care all the time or get referred for one program level but qualify for a much higher level of care or lower level of care.

It would also be critical to allow us to do referral admit from one program to another because several times we admit them into Outpatient, they have their first assessment while in referral status to see if they qualify for services and then we often admit them into other services from there. However, we cannot admit them as a referral to another program. We then have to retype and redo the entire file as a new referral losing data.
