MedicaidID on Patient POST and PUT?

[laborspy]

There any chance MedicaidID can be added to the POST and PUT for the patients API? I see we can GET, and it is a response from the creation on POST but you can never touch that field via API. I've seen requests back several years but no updates and can confirm it is still missing today in Dec 2024.

Good morning laborspy,

Enhancing the patients POST/PUT endpoints to include the ability to set the MedicaidID is currently on our development list and is being worked on. Can you please show me where you've seen requests going back several years?

Thanks!

I always try to look before I ask and this one appears to been open since 2021 and only GET was added into production. -- https://www.opendentalsoft.com:8085/for ... dID#p34501

Good morning laborspy,

I really appreciate you searching the forums for answers prior to asking. That request you linked requested that medicaidID be added to the patient GET endpoints, not to the POST or PUT endpoints.

The patients POST/PUT medicaidID enhancement was requested on 11 December 2024, which was 10 business days ago. API requests are typically processed first in, first out. However, we have moved this request up for you and will reply to this thread when the request is complete.

Thanks!

This feature request is complete and is available in version 24.4.13.

See Patients POST and PUT for more information.
Additionally, EhrPatients PUT has also been enhanced to support updating MedicaidState.

Thanks!
