Determination Package Integration with Case and Participant Information

Cúram Decision Assist supports the association of multiple determination packages with the same Decision Assist assessment. The purpose of integrating Determination Packages with existing case and participant information is to be able to use this information in order to select the determination package best suited to meet a client's needs. For example, the Asthma Medical Assessment has two determination packages: one for male clients and one for female clients. In this example, it makes sense that male and females would be evaluated differently when it came to their healthcare needs.

To support this integration, the Determination Package entity includes the following attributes which act as parameters for matching a client with a determination package:

• MinAge and MaxAge - if these attributes are set, then the determination package will only be used to assess the primary client provided that primary client's age falls within the age parameters
• Product - if this attribute is set, then only the determination package associated with the related product delivery case will be used to assess the primary client
• Gender - if this attribute is set, then the determination package will only be used to assess the primary client provided that the gender parameter matches the primary client's gender

The remainder of this section describes the process of matching a determination package to a client; it also describes in more detail the rules used during this matching process.
