What is the name of the company’s contact person in relation to AP?

• A. Client liaison
• B. AP authorizing person Medical AP and Non Medical AP
• C. Medical director
• D. Case manager

Answer: (B)

The situation tests who is officially designated to handle approvals and act as the point of contact for accounts payable. The correct role is the AP authorizing person, who specifically handles authorizations for both Medical AP and Non Medical AP. This person is the one empowered to approve payments and serve as the formal liaison for AP matters, ensuring proper controls and a single point of contact.

Why the others don’t fit: a client liaison deals with communications with clients rather than payment approvals; a medical director focuses on clinical oversight; and a case manager coordinates patient-related services. None of these roles carries the formal AP approval authority needed to be the primary contact for AP matters.
