Care Type: Type of care, such as long-term illness or literacy issues. If you select the Have Consent check box, this list box contains all available care types. If you clear the Have Consent check box, this list box contains only the care types that don't require consent.
Care Type Hold Days: Number of days to place the account on hold to suspend collection activity. Latitude populates this box with the default value for the selected care type.

Have Consent: If selected, you have consent from the customer to discuss care information. If cleared, the system only displays care types that don't require consent.
Confirmed Care: If selected, you confirmed that the account is in care. The system places a collection hold on the account and sets the expiration date based on the number of days set for the care type. You cannot add other care cases. If cleared, the system doesn't place a collection hold on the account.

When the hold release date expires, Latitude removes the hold on the account.

Supervisors can determine which accounts require approval using the "HoldDaysNeedApproval" condition in the Account Analysis query tool. For more information about Account Analysis, see "Account Analysis" in the Latitude Console documentation.
