BlueBook Selection

Post by omar22 »

Hello all,

Hope you had a wonderful holiday! I wanted to request a quick feature. At this point, with the insplan API I am only able to identify whether or not to use blue book. Is there a way to also be able to select whcih manual blue book to select?

Thank you very much in advance.

Good afternoon omar22,

You can tell which version of Blue Book (None, Legacy, or Blue Book) is being used by calling preferences GET.

Code: Select all

https://api.opendental.com/api/v1/preferences?PrefName=AllowedFeeSchedsAutomate
Returns:

Code: Select all

{
    "PrefNum": 196,
    "PrefName": "AllowedFeeSchedsAutomate",
    "ValueString": "0"
}
ValueString: "0" means None.
ValueString: "1" means Legacy.
ValueString: "2" means Blue Book.

Blue Book setup must be done by the office.

Thanks!

Good morning omar22,

I have added adding insplan.ManualFeeSchedNum to the API development list.

Thanks!

We have completed this feature request. ManualFeeSchedNum can now be supplied as part of InsPlans POST and InsPlans PUT.

This functionality is available as of beta version 25.2.24. Please see https://www.opendental.com/site/apiinsplans.html for more information.
