Ross

I believe the answer is:

referral

(Other definitions for referral that I've seen before include "Being passed on to a specialist" , "Act of consulting with or handing over to another" , "Recommendation to consult a professional" , "Sending, ie of patient to specialist" , "Action of passing a patient on for consultation" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
