Creating and maintaining carrier block information (by line of benefit, pooling limits) to strengthen benchmarking and negotiation leverage.
Tracking and reporting KPIs at both the Trust-management and company levels (e.g., funding ratio, Dollar Bank levels/excess, refund/deficit position, SLA performance, OnBoard publishing timeliness), and escalating exceptions as needed.
