Supported integrations
For now, adjustments are only supported for Dentrix, Eaglesoft and Open Dental.

Overview

Adjustments modify a patient’s balance. They’re often used to apply discounts, subscription fees, and insurance write offs to a patient’s ledger. Credits (negative adjustments) reduce the balance and debits (positive adjustments) increase it.

📘
Debit adjustments
All debit adjustments must be linked to either a provider or a charge. When creating an adjustment, include either the charge_splits or provider_splits parameter. If neither is provided, the request will fail.

Example use cases

Use the view adjustments, payments, and charges endpoints to calculate the patient’s balance and determine which charges are unpaid. This is useful for creating an itemized patient bill.
Use create adjustment transactions to add recurring membership fees to a patient’s ledger.
