Concession Verification | RebateRight

🚧 Coming Soon — This endpoint is not yet available. RebateRight is completing Medicare certification. Availability will be announced when certification is complete.

Verifies whether a Medicare patient holds a current concession entitlement.

RebateRight runs a Medicare identity check first. If the patient is found (including a partial match), a concession check is performed. If the Medicare check fails, only a Medicare error is returned — no concession check is attempted.
