DENTRIX-ASCEND

Attach coverage

Attach a carrier plan to a patient, and prove it is on the chart.

POSThttps://api.ontross.com/api/integrations/dentrix-ascend/attach-coverage
Request Fields
input.patient_id
string
required
Patient chart identifier.
Example
"64000004467586"
input.carrier_insurance_plan_id
string
required
The carrier plan to attach, from fetch-insurance-carriers.
Example
"64000000451392"
input.plan_subscriber_id
string
required
The member or subscriber id printed on the patient's card.
Example
"W123456789"
input.start_date
string
The date this coverage starts, YYYY-MM-DD. Defaults to today in the practice's own timezone -- which is the only 'today' that matches what the front desk sees, and not this process's clock.
Example
"2026-10-19"
input.coordination_order
integer
1 for primary, 2 for secondary. Attaching a second coverage is refused unless this says 2, so a new plan cannot silently displace the primary one.
Example
1
Default
1
auth_id
string
required
Saved connection to run this operation through, from the Authentication page. It decides which practice and login the call uses.
Example
"00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000000"

patient_insurance_plan_id
string
The created coverage, for the other insurance operations.

patient_id
string
The chart it was attached to.

string
The carrier plan attached.
plan_subscriber_id
