📘

Acknowledging a claim repudiated decision does not trigger a notification event.

The “claim repudiated” notification is only triggered when a repudiated claim is closed. This allows the claim to be resent for review following repudiation acknowledgement.

If your claims workflow requires further customisation beyond the standard events, you can configure custom notification events for your product. These events can be triggered from the product module code using claim lifecycle hooks or scheduled functions. For example, you can use the “After claim decision acknowledged” lifecycle hook to trigger a custom repudiation notification to the claimant.
