When the primary client is assigned the role of nominee, the default case delivery pattern is automatically added as a nominee delivery pattern to ensure there is at least one method for delivery. Delivery patterns can be added during the nominee creation process and as part of maintaining nominee information over time.
More than one delivery pattern can be active for a nominee for the same period of time. Multiple delivery patterns are added to a nominee to enable a nominee to receive case components by different delivery patterns. For example: James Smith is the primary client for a case and is entitled to two case components: Income Assistance and Medical Allowance. The case is created with the delivery pattern "Monthly by Check". All case components are assigned to James Smith with the delivery pattern "Monthly by Check". James Smith wants to receive payments for the Medical Allowance component weekly. To enable this, the delivery pattern "Weekly by Check" can be added to James Smith and the Medical Allowance component can be assigned to James Smith with the delivery pattern "Weekly by Check". This will enable James Smith to receive payments for the Income Assistance and Medical Allowance components monthly and weekly respectively.
