Hi team,

In the response model of GET /familymodules there are two fields planType & PlanType. can you please help me understand the possible values for both fields & how I can get 'PPO Fixed Benefit' value out of any of these two fields?

Thanks.

I moved your API question to the API section of our forum.

The FamilyModule GET Insurance method returns information similar to what is displayed in Insurance Section of Open Dental's Family Module. There is more information on plan types on its manual page here

Also, from our API documentation:
...
PlanType: insplan.PlanType. ""=percentage, "p"=ppo percentage, "f"=flat copay, "c"=capitation.
planType: Description of PlanType. Category Percentage, PPO Fixed Benefit, PPO Percentage, Medicaid or Flat Co-pay, or Capitation.
