You need to enable password-less "Public key authentication" in order to use ssh in a script. As far as I know, we cannot pass password using script for ssh. You can refer this blog as there are several replise for setting up "Public key authentication"

No as I said earlier, I have never used SSH in script with password & I am not sure of any other authetication other than "Public key authentication".
