- Distinguish between clearinghouse-level fixes and payer-level fixes; coordinate with the platform team accordingly
- Maintain a rejection tracking log, tagging by error type, payer, and root cause
- Work collaboratively with the Denial Specialists to ensure upstream rejections don't re-enter as downstream denials
