Patient first visit date.

Hello API Team,

What is the best method for us to get a patient first visit date? Is there a method for this?

Would it happen to be DateTStamp" from Patients GET (single)?

As Always thank you so much.

Good morning,

The date a patient first visited the dental office is stored in the patient.DateFirstVisit field. This is not currently returned through the API, but I will add to our development list to include it in our Patients GET methods' results.

We have completed this feature request. Patients GET (single / Simple) and Patients POST (create) will now display the DateFirstVisit for the patient(s). These methods will be available starting in our beta version (22.3.19).
