Payment
The Payment feature allows the user to make credit card payments including initiating a payment plan. Credit card payments can also be voided and non-credit card (cash/check) payments can be recorded in athenaNet. In addition, credit card payments not made via athenahealth's Credit Card Plus (CCP) can be recorded as having been made, however, we highly recommend using CCP (and /collectpayment).
Record Payment
The POST /patients/{patientid}/recordpayment call allows partners to record payments made via cash, check, or credit card payment outside of athenahealth's Credit Card Plus (CCP) processing.
Do not use this feature if the check is being scanned at the front desk using athenaNet, if a credit card payment is being made within athenaNet via CCP, or a payment is made via API using POST /patients/{patientid}/collectpayment. This will result in payments being double counted.
