Reference:
There is no exact equivalent in English
These are the definitions of the three type of patients, according to the Peruvian Health Ministry.
Nuevo (N): Es la persona que por primera vez en su vida acude a solicitar atención
de salud en el establecimiento de salud.
Continuador (C): Es aquella persona que acude a atenderse en el establecimiento
por segunda o más veces en el año.
Reingreso (R): Es la persona que acude por primera vez en el año al
establecimiento, pero ya ha sido atendida anteriormente en el establecimiento de
salud en años anteriores.
https://www.diresatumbes.gob.pe/phocadownload/Manuales_HIS_2...
To my knowledge, such distinctions do not exist in English, where patients are either ¨New¨or ¨Established¨.
By CPT definition, a new patient is “one who has not received any professional services from the physician, or another physician of the same specialty who belongs to the same group practice, within the past three years.” By contrast, an established patient has received professional services from the physician or another physician in the same group and the same specialty within the prior three years.

Reference:
A return patient
"As a return patient you will be asked for your Health Care Card at each visit."
Example sentence:
Establishing care as a new patient or continuing care as a return patient.
You will need to plan for a one day visit to the Center as a return patient.
Discussion
In this case you must define your terms;
New patient (nuevo): never seen before in the clinic
Established (regular) patient (continuador): maintains follow up or regular visits during the year
Established (former) patient (reingreso): known but with no recent visits for one year or more
The US definition of a new patient is that of a patient who has not been seen in the last three years; a patient known but who has no visits at least one year prior to the actual one would be an established (former) patient ("reingreso") by the Peruvian definition.
