Existing Patients
Existing Patients (who have a Policy associated), do not need to resolve their policy with a payer again.
This guide assumes familiarity with the Hard Check flow.
Pass a policyId upfront instead of patient and payer details.
The existing Policy already contains patient information; only state is required.
Patients may travel, and best practice is to confirm their location before each visit to comply with licensing requirements.
When a Policy is provided upfront, several steps and possible error-states are bypassed. The final resulting object is the same shape as with a new user check. See the Hard Check guide for result statuses and error handling.
