Defining Eligibility Check Processing

The administrator has the option to enable eligibility checks for an application case type. If enabled, the worker is provided with the option to check eligibility for the program(s) on an application case.

The administrator must specify a Cúram Express Rules (CER) ruleset. The ruleset outputs the eligibility decision for the program(s) checked on the application case, and, if relevant, the entitlement for that program.

If an Eligibility Check Ruleset is specified, an Eligibility Check Strategy must also be defined. This can be set to All Programs, Programs Applied For Only, or User Selection. If All Programs is selected, then eligibility is checked for all programs configured for the application case type. If Programs Applied For Only is selected, then eligibility is checked for the programs associated with the application case only. If User Selection is configured, the the worker is presented with a list of the programs configured for the application case type and has the option to select the relevant programs for which eligibility is to be checked.

The administrator may also specify a page on which the results of the eligibility check will be displayed. This page is displayed within the list dropdown panel of the Eligibility Checks list on the application case. If a page is not specified, a message stating that no further information is available is displayed in the list dropdown panel.

For more information on defining a CER ruleset for checking eligibility on an application case, and defining a results page, see the Cúram Intake Developer Guide.
