Yes I am trying to make it appear in both. I tried to make it hidden as you mentioned but it now says the CodeGroupNum is unavailable. Not sure how to fix this.

Thanks

omar22

Hello, I hope all is well with you. We have been getting an error when trying to add limitations on a custom created CodeGroup, which has AgeLimit enabled. image_720.png **Payload for age limit (not working) { "PlanNum": 101, "CodeGroupNum":14, "BenefitType": "Limitations", "TimePeriod": "None", "Qu...

nvm it was an issue on my end sorry!

omar22

Hey, Hope you are having a wonderful week so far! I have been having an issue with some of my clients where even when I put deductible for diagnostic, xray, and routine preventative through the API as 0, it still applies a deductible towards the services. Is there any way to fix this? Thank you! Omar

omar22

Is there a way to add notes to the PlanNote/SubscNote without deleting what's already there? Similar to the APtNote logic.

Thank you!
Omar

omar22

Awesome thanks! CodeGroups will always be the same across all clinics, unlike covcats, right? for example FMX/PANO will always be CodeGroupNum 2, right?

omar22

Hey sorry to bother you again, but it appears version 23.2.62 is still unavailable for my offices to update to. Do you have an ETA to when this version will be available?

omar22

Good afternoon, I would recommend a query to obtain this information. One of the advantages of this would be the ability to grab the information easily for list of patients. Calculations for populating the text boxes in your screenshot: AnnualMax - This is directly from the Benefit table (benefit.M...

omar22

Sorry I thought you meant 2/22. My apologies

Thank you for your quick and prompt responses.

Is there a way to POST frequency in CodeGroups? I can't find any documentation on the API specification or anything to implement this new change. Benefits were enhanced in version 23.2.62. -GET no longer requires a PlanNum or PatPlanNum. -GET now returns CodeGroupNum value. -POST now supports creat...

I tried using the POST /benefits with CodeGroupNum and it doesn't work (my demo versionis 23.3.32.0). Please see payload: { "PlanNum": 74, "CovCatNum": 0, "Percent":-1, "MonetaryAmt":-1, "BenefitType":"Limitations", "QuantityQualifier":"Months", "Quantity":12, "CodeGroupNum": 2, "CoverageLevel": "No...

omar22

Great, thank you!

omar22

Can you also add a DELETE function? What would be the ETA on these?

Thank you

omar22

Hi I am having a similar issue. Is there a way to get the Deductible Applied or Insurance remaining through either a GET ClaimProcs InsAdjust or through a query? I am trying to find the latest Deductible Remaining and Insurance Remaining which shows up when u navigate to Tx Plan (see photo). Screens...

great, thanks.

Also, the frequencies that used to populate fields in OD older versions

: Screenshot 2024-02-07 145427.png (105.77 KiB) Viewed 19539 times

no longer populate the fields in the newer updates of OD

: Screenshot 2024-02-07 125425.png (110.67 KiB) Viewed 19539 times

(see attached). How can I change the frequencies now to fill in to the correct fields?

omar22

Hello,

I have had MULTIPLE offices complain about percentages and frequencies being incorrectly uploaded in their Open Dental, and upon a quality check on my side, I've found it to be a glitch with Open Dental API. Is there any way to circumvent this issue?

omar22

Hi, I have a question about selecting downgrades for D2391, D2392, D2393, and D2394. Since they are globally added into Open Dental, and all have their own unique downgrade codes, i.e. D2140, D2150, D2160 and D2161, respectively, is there an easier way to POST the downgrades rather than have 4 diffe...

omar22

Awesome, thank you

omar22

Hey, I just wanted to follow up on this request. Thank you!!

omar22

The API is still super slow and laggy for me. Is this issue still ongoing with OD? Thanks

omar22

Is there a way to unify this? Like if we can create an option for CovCat which is words, not numbers? For example CovCatNum=X-ray or something similar to that?
alternatively, is there a way to edit the covcatnum for the dental offices?
thanks again

omar22

For example, in the image attached, the coinsurance were posted for all the categories, yet it didnt populate into Open Dental for this clinic. Typically it would for other clinics.

omar22

Is there anyone I can share my screen with to show the issue? It's not necessarily an error, it's more so that the same covcatnum, doesnt always equate to the same category across dental clinics

omar22

Hello, I am struggling with the CovCatNum and how to input the percent for diff categories such as diagnostic, x-ray, routine preventative etc. I used the covcatnums defined in the documentation, but it works for some clinics and doesnt work for others. I really need help with this, as it's causing ...

omar22

Has anyone else had issues with the API today? It's been down a few times today and wanted to see if it was an issue everyone else was having.

Thanks!

omar22

Thank you so much for the prompt response!!

omar22

A member of our team was able to duplicate your described behavior. For us, it occurred when insurance has already paid the Annual Max (eg $1500) on received claim(s). Because ClaimProcs PUT InsAdjust is used to override all existing insurance pay amounts, passing in an InsUsed value of 163 conveys...

omar22

Hey Justine,

Yes, that is what I am looking to do. More specifically, add fee schedules, then add fees on a d-code level specific to that fee schedule.

As for the turnaround time, I totally understand; you guys are the best and all your hard work is much appreciated!

Thank you so much again,
Omar

omar22

Hello,

I would like to request being able to POST new fee schedules and being able to add fees on a D-code level. Is there an existing method of achieving this? If not, I would like to request it please

Thank you all so much!
Omar

omar22

That makes perfect sense. Thank you for the thorough explanation I really appreciate it, and I look forward to the POST addition

omar22

Hey @Sleon! Yes, the individual annual max was 1500; family annual max was n/a. I am not positive if there were prior adjustments made, but if there can be a way to override that, even if there were prior adjustments, and just include the latest value inserted via the API, that would be fantastic. T...

omar22

I am in EST, I'm not really sure why it's happening, but if there's no time component then it must be something on our side; thank you for the clarification! The other issue I've been having is, this sample patient had a maximum of 1500, and the insurance used was 163. When I use the ClaimProcs PUT ...

omar22

Hello, I found that when I try to add history in the ProcedureLogs API and put the date in the YYYY-MM-DD format, the date gets uploaded as the next day. This issue is also present when I try to search for patients using the GET and filter by DOB, it doesn't work, since the date I enter is a day ahe...

I estimate that 22.4 will be out of beta in roughly a month's time. The InsPlan.CodeSubstNone feature request is in the final stages of development and will be included. Hi! I am so sorry to bother you again with this, I was just wondering if you had a date for when 22.4 will be out of beta? My pot...

omar22

... on the Open Dental UI, I am able to check off "Don't Substitute Codes". Is there a way to do this via the API? - i believe in the documentation it says this can be achieved by making the CodeSubstNone=1 in the insplan table... InsPlan.CodeSubstNone has been added to InsPlans GET, POST, and PUT ...

Hello there, these features are super helpful. Is it possible to add a Post(create) InsPlan? I only see Get and Put. The InsPlans POST method is complete and is available now in versions 22.4.24 and later. Thank you for adding the SubstitutionLink documentation! I would also like to request the DEL...

omar22

Good morning Omar, The form you are referring to inserts rows into the insplan, inssub, and patplan tables. To add a new insurance plan for a patient and "Create New Plan if Needed" via the API you will do the following: Use Patients POST to create a new patient. If you don't already have the data ...

omar22

Good afternoon, By "relationship" are you referring to "Self", "Spouse", "Child", etc? If so, you will want to use our PatPlans resource and supply the Relationship field in your PatPlans POST/PUT request. Yes, we can add SubscNote to InsSubs POST/PUT methods. I have added this to our development l...

you guys really are incredible.. thank you so much

omar22

InsPlan POST feature request is complete. It will be available in our next beta version. @Omar22, Yes. Use InsSubs POST to subscribe a patient to an existing InsPlan. Is there a way to add relationship to subscriber via API? Thank you for your quick replies!! Also - is it possible to add SubscNote ...

Good morning, 1. Benefits cannot be deleted by plan within the Open Dental program. The API follows this example. 2a. Yes we can add EO as a status in our ProcedureLogs POST/PUT methods. I have added this to our development list. 2b. Which ProcedureLogs methods are you using and what error message ...

omar22

great thank you!

omar22

Thank you! Is there a way to also add an existing InsPlan to a patient with the current available APIs?

There are a few API requests in line before InsPlans POST. I would estimate that it will be implemented in roughly three weeks time.

Hi I just wanted to follow up on this. Thank you!!

omar22

That makes a lot of sense, thanks for explaining!!

omar22

The only issue with that is I am trying to create a dropdown on my platform to be able to select procCodes directly to add benefits, and I can't use pagination for that. Same thing with my patient list; I want to create a query to have all patients on my Saas platform where the clinic can search for...

omar22

Hi, when I try to GET all the procedurecodes, I only get about 100 of them. Is there any way to retrieve all the procedurecodes using the GET function?

thanks

omar22

You are incredibly helpful. Thank you so much for that thorough explanation.

omar22

Great, thank you. I have another question, sorry to be a bother. If an insurance plan for an existing patient is dropped and a new one is added, is there a query that I can run to be able to tell any changes to the patient's insurance plan, independent of the PlanNum, since that changes when new ins...

omar22

Yes, the 'through age' field is what I was referring to. Okay cool, so I will try with that POST method. It wasn't working with the demo version though so hopefully it'll work with the full version.

Thank you so much Justine

omar22

Hi Justine - hope you are doing well. I have a quick question regarding fluoride and sealant age limit. How do I update these using the Benefit API? They don't appear to be part of any category. Thanks! Hello Omar, Flouride or sealant age limit is stored in the Benefits Quantity field with a Quanti...

omar22

Hi I have a couple quick questions/requests. 1. For the DELETE function for benefits, I was looking to delete all pre-existing benefits under a PlanNum. The documentation currently only allows the DELETE function for BenefitNum. Can we allow deleting by PlanNum please? 2. For procedurelogs, we reque...

Awesome, thank you guys so much for everything you do!

omar22

That sounds great, thank you for providing that information.

Hi, I have a question regarding creating buttons on Open Dental UI, similar to the one in this post.

I'd like to create a button on the Open Dental task bar that can link to my external software. What is the best most compliant way to approach this?

Thank you!

omar22

That makes sense, thank you so much!

omar22

Hi Justine - hope you are doing well.

I have a quick question regarding fluoride and sealant age limit. How do I update these using the Benefit API? They don't appear to be part of any category.

Thanks!

omar22

Justine,

I can't express my gratitude enough. Thank you so much!

Respectfully,
Omar

omar22

@justine, I guess another potentially easier way to achieve this would be a DELETE function to clear all pre-existing or automatically loaded benefits for a specific PlanNum. Is this possible? Having both the DELETE and PUT functions would be ideal; would that be possible? And if you don't mind me a...

omar22
