Organization

Currently the ‘Organization’ resource can only be used to query two different data sets. It can be used to find Payers in the ModMed Practice Management system. It can also be used to find Referring Institutions within EMA/MMPM. We will be expanding on the Organization resource to include other types of Organizations in the future, so if you are looking for additional functionality, be sure to check back.
