we need to clean up the notes. It has all notes for the lead so we need to sift to pull out the decline reasoning. Once we do that we will send you the report. I can send you the list of leadIDs right now if you would like though

@Nicholas McFadden @deleted-U04GZ79CPNG @Carter Matzinger every one of these should be a QA signed and declined. How have these been dispositioned in the reporting and systems, plus benchmark reports?

Some are in the status of "Signed & DECLINED ReTriggered" due to the backfills and that status is accounted for in the weekly financial report and the Looker dashboards but it was not included in the shared google sheet. However, Aidan is updating it to count that status now too.

This is from Dave at Flatirons

  1. Camp Lejeune - $45,500 of additional spend was added this week which we don’t have in the budget. What is the explanation?
  2. CPAP - $8,100 of additional spend was added this week which we don’t have in the budget. What is the explanation?
  3. Hair Relaxer – we are $13k over budget. What is the explanation of additional costs?

Nicholas McFadden (nickmcfadden@shield-legal.com)
2025-08-28 17:21:12

@Cameron Rentch We identified 15 lead changes across CPAP, Hair Relaxer, and Camp Lejeune cases requiring review. One CPAP lead was initially declined and properly removed from financials, but later returned to billable status. This created a discrepancy where the lead appeared in reporting but not financials (since financials only update on first billable status, not subsequent changes). During recent reconciliation, we adjusted financials upward to match the TIP system showing the additional lead. Still reviewing remaining cases to identify any similar issues.

Nicholas McFadden (nickmcfadden@shield-legal.com)
2025-08-28 17:22:04

@deleted-U06C7A8PVLJ will continue investigating the remaining changes but we imagine them to be of a similar nature

Nicholas McFadden (nickmcfadden@shield-legal.com)
2025-08-28 17:25:47

We need to establish a better communication process between Luis and Zeke when they remove something out of Decline and make it billable again.

Cameron Rentch (cameron@internetthings.com)
2025-08-28 17:26:08

@Nicholas McFadden I am still very confused. @Ryan really need some help. Dave wants answers.

Dave said the total funds spent increased in the past week.

Nick - Ryan said there is nothing you or anyone could do to cause increase in spend in flatirons dashboard.

Ryan - Nick seems to be saying otherwise.

Nick - Can you and Edward please identify any changes made to leads ans status for lejeune and cpap in the past week?

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

The financial systems do match up now but that is because of the reconciliation. It seemed as though we were on budget but after the change back to billable was accounted for it now it is over budget because they continued getting leads when the contract/financials thought that lead was declined

2025-08-28 18:33:51

That makes sense, so have we added @deleted-U06C7A8PVLJ the declined and then returned to billable back to financial log yet?

Nicholas McFadden (nickmcfadden@shield-legal.com)
2025-08-28 18:37:48

Although an overage they match across the systems thanks to reconciliation. The question is why did it go back to billable? We usually base it off of DL’s Medical Tracking report so although we declined it they might still have it as open and that would make sense why Luis returned it to a billable status

Nicholas McFadden (nickmcfadden@shield-legal.com)
2025-08-28 18:44:07

It just wasn’t communicated that the change was made and then when Zeke saw the count difference he fixed it as he should’ve. It’s just there was a time delay between when the lead was declined when we were under contract count and when Luis returned it to billable status and the reconciliation cleaned it up. In that window we seemingly needed more leads on the contract so we continued finalizing. Now there is a possibility that it should still be declined but DL just hasn’t updated it. Will have to talk with Luis to figure out if there was additional reasoning from them that would explain why he moved it but otherwise we might need to ask DL

@deleted-U06C7A8PVLJ @Zekarias Haile and I have been working on this until now. We’ve been digging into what happened across the 15 leads (CPAP, Camp Lejeune, and Hair Relaxer), identifying weaknesses in our current processes, and pinpointing the system/tool limitations that allowed the discrepancies to go unnoticed. We’re brainstorming solutions and preventative measures, with the goal of putting together a concrete plan and SOPs we can bring forward. Tomorrow we’ll meet with Brittany and the team to gather any additional insights/solutions, and we’ll also connect with Luis and Ops to better understand the reasoning behind some of the specific changes. After that, we’ll regroup with the broader team to make sure you’re fully equipped with the context of what happened and the solutions moving forward.

When we have the new shield financials, anything like this will be avoided. In the old system, we had a rule for Tony, if you decline and then sign, we had to be informed with the lead IDs.

Edward, for now you can simply delete them from public financial log when declined, instead of marking them, signed and declined, then if they re-sign them, the lambda would pull them back in as unique. That may be the simple way to solve it.
