Synonym for source
 
Systems for picking up patterns of unusual symptoms have been expanded to include a wider range of NHS  sources, including out-of-hours and hospital emergency departments.

Can you help me with synonims for source in this situation?

National Health Service sources i.e. government institutions which provide health services to the population.
Native speakers, did I get it right?

wider range of NHS sources,
synonym- origins 
wider range of NHS origins
But we could also say:
 
 
wider range of NHS figures (my preference)
wider range of NHS reports
wider range of NHS information
 
These words indicate that the information originated from or was sourced from the NHS.
 
NHS = National Health Service
 
Others may have another suggestion.

@ Sophia
 
The National Health Service (NHS) is the shared name of three of the four publicly funded healthcare systems in the United Kingdom. (Wikipedia) , so you were right about that.
 
Mari asked for synonyms for the word "sources", as used in her sentence.
