The People/Organisation Categories page controls the drop-down list for the "Person/Organisation Category" field, used on the Details Screen. This list is often used for categorising Organisations or Referrers (into "Voluntary Groups", "Businesses" and so on, as shown in the screenshot below), but can be used in any way you want, to categorise any Type of Organisation/Person. You could add a category for GP Surgeries, then list all your individual surgeries as referrers but the report would collate them all together.
