Integrated Case Strategy

The Integrated Case Strategy must be defined in order for the system to identify whether a new or existing integrated case should be used when program authorization is successful. The integrated case is used to host any product deliveries created as a result of the authorization. If a new integrated case is created, all of the application case clients are added as case participants to the integrated case. If an existing integrated case is used, any additional clients on the application case are added as case participants to the integrated case. Any evidence captured on the application case that is also required on the integrated case is copied to the integrated case upon successful authorization. The configuration options for the integrated case strategy are as follows:

New
A new integrated case of the specified type is always created when authorization is successful for one or more programs on an application
Existing (Exact Client Match)
If an integrated case of the specified type exists with the same clients as those present on the application case, the existing case is automatically used. If multiple integrated cases that meet these criteria exist, the worker is presented with a list of the cases and must select one to proceed with the authorization. If no existing cases match the criteria, a new integrated case is automatically created.
Existing (Exact Client Match) or New
If one or more integrated cases of the specified type exist with the same clients as those present on the application case, the user is presented with the option to select an existing case to use as the ongoing case, or to create a new integrated case. If no existing cases match the criteria, a new integrated case is automatically created.
Existing (Any Client Match) or New
If one or more integrated cases of the specified type exist, where any of the clients of the application case are case participants, the user is presented with the option to select an existing case to use as the ongoing case, or to create a new integrated case. If no existing cases match the criteria, a new integrated case is automatically created.
