Determination Retrieval

A case worker can view determination snapshots for a product delivery case, including:

• the current assessment determination, if any - i.e. the determination which is the basis of the actual delivery of the product (e.g. the basis for financials for benefit payments);
• historical assessment determinations, each of which was at one time current but has since been superseded;
• snapshots taken when a case was submitted for approval, approved or rejected; and
• the result of requesting a manual determination.

When the case worker views a determination snapshot, then the system will analyze the determination result to find the dates on which one or more of the eligibility/entitlement/explanation changes, and will use these dates to carve up the case lifetime into coverage periods.

Each coverage period is shown with its from and to dates. If the case is open-ended, then the last coverage period will be open-ended. If the case worker chooses to see decision details for a coverage period, then the system will display a "vertical slice" through the determination data for that date.
