## Enhanced Response Format

When True Eligibility is enabled, a `true_eligibility` field is added to your eligibility responses:

```json theme={null}
{
  "true_eligibility": {
    "Status": "active",
    "EffectiveDate": "01/01/2025",
    "ExpiryDate": "12/31/2025",
    "PolicyType": "ppo",
    "Deductible_Standard_Individual": "50.00",
    "Deductible_Standard_Individual_Remaining": "50.00",
    "Deductible_Standard_Family": "150.00",
    "GroupNumber_Response": "GRP123456",
    "GroupName_Response": "ACME HEALTHCARE DENTAL",
    "PayerName_Response": "ACME DENTAL INSURANCE",
    "PatientFirstName_Response": "JOHN",
    "PatientLastName_Response": "DOE",
    "PatientDOB_Response": "01/15/1985",
    "Diagnostic_Coverage": "100",
    "Preventive_Coverage": "100",
    "Basic_Restorative_Coverage": "80",
    "Crowns_Coverage": "50",
    "Orthodontics_Coverage": "50",
    "// ...": "100+ additional enriched fields"
  }
}
```

## How It Works

```mermaid theme={null}
flowchart LR
    A[Your Request] --> B[API Dental Gateway]
    B --> C[Raw Payer Response]
    C --> D{True Eligibility Enabled?}
    D -->|No| E[Return Raw Response]
    D -->|Yes| F[Transform Engine]
    F -->|100+ Rules| G[Standardized Response]
    G --> H[Return Enriched Response]
```

1. Your eligibility request is processed normally
2. The raw payer response is captured
3. The True Eligibility transform engine applies 100+ rules to normalize and enrich the data
4. The standardized `true_eligibility` object is added to your response

## Developer Time Savings

Instead of writing complex parsing logic for dozens of different payer response formats, get standardized, enriched data ready for your application. Focus on building features, not data transformation.

<Tip>
  True Eligibility works with both the standard Eligibility API and the ClearCoverage API. The transform is applied automatically when enabled on your account.
