PointClickCare API

PointClickCare is the leading cloud EHR for skilled nursing, senior living, and post-acute care, powering census and ADT, MDS assessments, eMAR, clinical charting, and billing for 30,000+ provider organizations. Its official APIs sit behind a partner program with per-customer authorization letters, app reviews, and per-facility fees. An unofficial API lets you programmatically pull residents, census events, assessments, medication records, and claims—and push updates back into PointClickCare—without waiting on partnership approval.

What is PointClickCare?

PointClickCare is the dominant cloud EHR platform for skilled nursing, senior living, and post-acute care in North America, serving 30,000+ provider organizations with clinical charting, census and ADT management, eMAR, MDS assessments, billing, and care coordination. Its product families span Skilled Nursing, Senior Living, Hospital & Health Systems, and Health Plans, with a marketplace of 400+ integrations connecting third-party software and service providers across the care continuum.

Common data entities:

  • Resident census and ADT events (admissions, discharges, transfers)
  • MDS 3.0 assessments that drive PDPM reimbursement
  • eMAR/eTAR medication administration records and physician orders
  • Clinical charting and care plans
  • Billing, claims, AR, and payer eligibility
  • Staffing and payroll inputs

The PointClickCare Integration Challenge

  • A developer portal exists, but most documentation sits behind a login, and production access is multi-gated rather than self-serve
  • Becoming a partner means a marketplace partnership application, an app authenticity review (around 10 business days), and a Definitive Agreement that may include fees
  • Every customer connection requires a per-customer Letter of Authorization before your app can touch that facility's data
  • USCDI Connector apps carry a $65 per app, per facility, per month charge billed to the customer
  • The free FHIR sandbox is shared, and production parity only comes after partnership approval
  • Terms prohibit scraping and bots, webhooks are not publicly documented, and there are no official SDKs — so event-driven workflows are hard to build

How Supergood Creates PointClickCare APIs

Supergood builds and maintains an unofficial, managed API on top of the PointClickCare workflows your team already uses. Instead of waiting on partnership approval, Letters of Authorization, and per-facility fees, you get clean REST endpoints for the resident, clinical, and billing data your systems need.

  • Handles authentication, MFA, and session management automatically
  • Normalizes census, assessment, eMAR, and billing data into consistent JSON
  • Monitors for UI and workflow changes and adapts the integration before it breaks
  • Delivers webhook-style change notifications even where the platform documents none

Frequently asked questions

PointClickCare has a developer portal and FHIR documentation with a shared sandbox, but production access is multi-gated: a marketplace partnership application, an app authenticity review (~10 business days), a per-customer Letter of Authorization, a Definitive Agreement that may include fees, and a $65 per app, per facility, per month charge for USCDI Connector apps. Supergood provides a managed alternative that doesn't depend on partnership approval.

Not with Supergood. We build an unofficial API on top of the PointClickCare workflows your organization is already authorized to use, so you skip the partner application, authenticity review, and per-facility connector fees.

Typical integrations cover residents and census/ADT events, MDS 3.0 assessments, eMAR and physician orders, care plans, and billing, claims, and eligibility data — normalized into consistent JSON.

Supergood monitors the platform continuously and adapts the integration automatically, typically within hours, so your API contract stays stable while the underlying application evolves.

Most integrations go from assessment call to a validated, production-ready API in days, not the months a partner application and per-customer authorization process can take.
