Check Eligibility and Claims Submission Workflow

You have patient’s demographics information and patient’s insurance information.

You want to check if the patient is eligible for the procedure / visit.

  1. Contact the VSee team to configure which insurers you want to support. Once configured, use https://vsee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VD/pages/55083127/Insurance+API+Draft#GET-%2Finsurance%2F to pull the list which will also contain insurer_id.

  2. Create a VSee Clinic user via https://vsee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VD/pages/14942243/User+API#POST-%2Fusers%2Fsso

    1. As a response you will receive user_id on VSee side.

  3. Some user fields are required if you want to use the insurance API. Use https://vsee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VD/pages/14942243/User+API#POST-%2Fme to update the user’s insurance information based on user_id.

  4. Run https://vsee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VD/pages/55083127#POST-%2Fusers%2F%3Aid%2Feligibility to trigger the eligibility check for the given user_id. The eligibility check may take some time.

  5. Receive a webhook request with eligibility_response message which will contain the result of the eligibility check.

  6. If the user is eligible, trigger a claim submission process for the user_id https://vsee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VD/pages/55083127/Insurance+API+Draft#POST-%2Finsurance%2Fclaims

  7. Receive a webhook request with eligibility_response message which will contain the result of the eligibility check.

POST /users/:id/eligibility

https://api-vclinic.vseepreview.com/vc/next/api_v3/users/:id/eligibility

Check insurance eligibility for the given patient. This assumes all required insurance data is saved for this user.

Set insurance data with https://vsee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VD/pages/14942243/User+API#POST-%2Fme ? (insurer_id, insurance_plan).

VSee will create a patient record in AdvancedMD as needed if it’s not existing yet.

Result

Since the check may take up to 1-2 minutes, should we trigger a webhook eligibility.checked when it's ready?

Output

Code Block
{
  "data": {
      "eligibility_id": amd_eligibility_id
    }
}

In case of error / missing data we should display a proper error message.

Raw Data in user_datas

It will populate the user’s insurance.eligibility when response received from the 3rd party.
