Completed codes update questions

Post by beacondental » Tue Jul 18, 2023 6:19 am

Hello API Team. We are looking to update a completed appt provider and amount with a GET, PUT and POST option. For example, if the dental office completed a code for Missed appt (D9986), then we would like to change the amount and provider on the completed account module.

In the API documentation, we did not have any option to get ProcedureLog using ProcNum. And I don't have other details of ProcedureLog like DateTime, and as described in API Doc PatNum or AptNum will give multiple PeocedureLogs. And it is not a good way to get a list and then only update one, it will slow down the system. Could you please let us know how to update a GET query of the ProcedureLog so that I can get the information using 'ProcNum' directly.

Good morning,

We can add ProcedureLogs GET (Single) to our development list. It would return the single procedurelog associated with the specified procnum.

However if your goal is to update an existing procedure you will only need the procnum, which it sounds like you already have. Can you please clarify your workflow?

Good morning,

I just want to update only one field named 'ProvNum' in orocedureLog, is it possible to just give that one field and ProcNum to update it. Or if I'll need to add other data, (As I said earlier) I do not have any other field's data. Please guide us.

Thank you.

Also we want to update ClaimProc for that also the API doc do not have facility to get ClaimProc using 'ClaimProcNum'. It would be great if you could provide that also. If it requires all other data to update ClaimProc and not just single field.


Thank you.

Good Morning beacondental,

Our PUT methods do allow you to update a single field at a time since all the fields we list are optional. ProcedureLogs PUT allows you provide the ProcNum and only update the ProvNum field. Please see https://www.opendental.com/site/apiprocedurelogs.html for more information.

ClaimProcs are complicated as they can be deleted and replaced with new ones when a procedure is added to a claim, which means obtaining a single ClaimProc by the 'ClaimProcNum' is not a good option. We can enhance our existing ClaimProcs GET to all the ClaimProcs by the 'ProcNum', which would ensure you are getting the correct ClaimProcs for an individual ProcedureLog. Please let us know if this enhancement would assist you with your current workflow and we can add it to our development list.

Hello beacondental,

ProcedureLogs GET (Single) has already been added to our development list.

We will also add to our development list the enhancement to ClaimProcs GET to use 'ProcNum' as a parameter. It will return all of the ClaimProcs associated with the specified 'ProcNum'. We will update this thread when these requests are completed.

The feature request to enhance ClaimProcs GET has been completed and is available in our beta version 23.2.16. This method will now allow you to filter the list of ClaimProcs by the "ProcNum" field. Please see https://www.opendental.com/site/apiclaimprocs.html for more information.
