Adjudication criteria moving to be configurable per each client product

We are changing the way you can configure your adjudication criteria to be able to give you more granular control and apply different criteria to different products, according to your clients’ specifications. Previously, adjudication criteria were configurable only at the client level, which meant the same criteria had to be used for all the different products that client ordered, but now you can have different criteria set for each product if desired. This gives you and your clients an at-a-glance look at what actions or steps you may wish to take based on the parameters that they have specified.
This change will go into effect on Tuesday, April 10th.

If you’ve already set adjudication criteria for a client

If your client has already set adjudication criteria and you have configured it in the system, you won’t need to change anything. This will simply be renamed to be the default adjudication criteria. As before, this criteria is set at the client level, will apply to any products that client uses, and will be visible from the report results page to help with setting the report decision.
However, you will now have the ability to override this default adjudication criteria and set different ones for each product the client uses, according to the directions they give you.

What’s new

By adding the adjudication option to the client product, the following areas will be affected or added:

Under Manage Client >> Preferences >> Report Decision Tool:

  • Default adjudication criteria: The adjudication criteria you set here has been renamed to “default adjudication criteria,” and each product the client uses will follow the adjudication criteria set at the client level, as before, so that you will see no change to any of your existing processes. When you update your default adjudication criteria, it will apply to all the products using that criteria, just like before.
  • Product list: You will now also have the ability to view which of the client’s products are using the default adjudication criteria so you know which ones will be affected if you change the criteria at the client level.

Under Manage Client >> Product tab >> select product:

  • Client product adjudication criteria: There will now be a field for the adjudication criteria within the configuration of a specific product, below the product notes. This field will only appear when the Report Decision Tool has been turned on. To learn more about the Report Decision Tool and how to use it, click here. You will be able to view or edit the adjudication criteria for just that product here.
  • Custom adjudication criteria: If desired, rather than using the default criteria set at the client level, you can enter custom requirements from your client that are specific just to that one product. This gives you and your client the most flexibility possible.

Learn more about exactly how these pieces work and how you can configure them below.

Setting default adjudication criteria

You can set default adjudication criteria for clients and see what products that default criteria will apply to. To set default adjudication criteria, go to Admin >> Manage Client >> select your client you want to configure this for >> Preferences tab. Under the Report Decision Tool section, if the report decision tool is enabled, you will be able to configure your settings.
Note: The default adjudication criteria you set for a given client will apply to all products you have set for that client. To set a custom adjudication criteria for a single product, see the next section.
