VSee calls Practitioner API using
practitionerId

appointmentId
. Try to find a matching user record by mapping Patient’s MRN with VSee patient's MRNOnce the patient joined the meeting, call Appointment PATCH API to update appointment status on Cerner’s side. Status changes to checked-in on Cerner side.
