Correspondence With IS

• Correspondence can include an authority to bill
  flag which identifies when the authority to bill
  has been issued
• Not tied to settlement periods like transactions
  in Integrated Settlement real-time and similar
  to e-mail but via IS-WEB interface
• Validation ensures no cross-over
  correspondence can only be in reply to another
  correspondence (or 3rd-stage RM) and cannot be
  out-of-order

Audit Trail Rejection History

• With operational data being stored
• Future records (e.g. rejections) dont need
  supporting documents re-attached

  previous billings

  your carrier billed or was billed

  rejections, and prime billings

  responded to
