What should a partner ask before referring a request internally?

Short answer

Confirm the receiving staff member's authorization, relevant capability and applicable customer permission. Internal transfer should not expose information to unrelated accounts or broaden the purpose.

An illustrative example

An agency routes a request to another department.

This is a hypothetical situation, not a real customer outcome or a coverage determination.

Three facts to prepare

• Authorized recipient
• Relevant capability
• Permitted purpose

Use a brief, accurate summary. Separate confirmed facts from assumptions; keep passwords, identity numbers, private customer records and confidential documents out of an initial marketplace request.

A question to bring to the right professional

Can this staff member handle the request within the approved scope?

Use current offer status, applicable agreements and the customer's actual permission. Free participation does not authorize resale, unlimited follow-up or unrelated use of information. Prioritize prompt professional service, accurate records and stop-contact requests; use support when an issue requires investigation or operational action.
