Beta

Send Nex-Api-Version: v3.1.0 to use this endpoint. It is still changing, and access is limited to approved partner institutions. Contact NexHealth before you build on it.

Changed from v3.0.0: Adds request fields patient.address, patient.address.city, patient.address.line_1, patient.address.line_2 (+10 more); removes request fields patient.bio, patient.bio.address_line_1, patient.bio.address_line_2, patient.bio.cell_phone_number (+16 more); and other schema changes.

This endpoint creates a new patient (201 Created), or returns the existing patient (200 OK) when one with a matching name and date of birth already exists. At least one non-blank phone number (cell_phone_number, home_phone_number, or work_phone_number) is required. Phone numbers are written to typed fields in the integrated system, but many systems report the main number back as an untyped primary number — see the cell_phone_number and preferred_phone_number response fields for how that is surfaced.
