# Documents: Uploading and Managing Client Files

> Upload, view, download, and archive files on a client's Documents tab. BridgePoint accepts PDFs and images up to 20 MB, organized into six document categories.

The Documents tab on a client profile stores every file associated with that client — scanned IDs, proof of income, program approval letters, intake forms, and anything else your agency needs to keep on record. Files are stored securely and accessed through short-lived signed URLs, so documents are never publicly accessible.

## Document Categories

BridgePoint organizes documents into six categories. When you upload a file, you select its document type, which determines the category automatically.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Intake Forms" icon="pen-to-square">
    Forms required or collected at intake, including the Release Authorization Form, Medicaid Intake Form, Income Attestation, ACA Pre-Qualification Form, FFM Consent, and scanned paper copies of digital acknowledgements.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Identity & Residency" icon="id-card">
    Documents that establish who the client is and where they live: Photo ID (driver's license or passport), Social Security card, birth certificate, proof of address, and immigration paperwork.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Program Documents" icon="file-certificate">
    Program-specific records such as MyACCESS Status Update Notices, Medicaid cards, SNAP and TCA approval letters, ACA insurance cards, and denial letters.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Income & Financials" icon="money-bill">
    Financial verification documents including pay stubs, Social Security award letters, bank statements, and tax returns.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Client Request" icon="file-pen">
    Client-initiated coverage change requests: Add/Remove Members, Cancel Coverage, Change Plan Type (remain with same carrier), Switch INTO Florida Blue (from another carrier), and Switch OUT of Florida Blue (into another carrier).
  </Card>

  <Card title="Other" icon="folder-open">
    Any document that does not fit the categories above. You can give these a custom title when uploading.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Supported File Types and Size Limit

BridgePoint accepts the following file formats:

* **PDF** (`.pdf`)
* **JPEG** (`.jpg`, `.jpeg`)
* **PNG** (`.png`)
* **WebP** (`.webp`)

The maximum file size is **20 MB**. If your file exceeds this limit, compress it or scan it at a lower resolution before uploading.

<Warning>
  Files outside these formats — such as Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, or HEIC images — are not accepted. Convert them to PDF or a supported image format before uploading.
</Warning>

## Uploading a Document

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the client profile">
    Navigate to the client's profile and click the **Documents** tab.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Upload Document">
    Click the **Upload Document** button to open the upload panel.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select the document type">
    Choose the document type from the dropdown. The available types are grouped by category (Intake Forms, Identity & Residency, Program Documents, Income & Financials, Client Request, and Other).

    If you select **Other Document**, an additional **Custom Title** field appears. Enter a descriptive name so staff can identify the file later.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the file">
    Click **Choose File** or drag and drop the file onto the upload area. The file must be a PDF, JPEG, PNG, or WebP and no larger than 20 MB.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the upload">
    Click **Upload**. BridgePoint validates the file type and size, stores the file securely, and creates a document record. The file appears in the Documents tab immediately with a generated name that includes the document type and upload date.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Uploaded documents are named automatically using the format `[Document Type] — [Month Day, Year]`. For **Other** documents, the custom title you provide is used instead. MyACCESS Status Update Notices are numbered sequentially across all uploads for that client (e.g., `MyACCESS Status Update Notice #3 — May 17, 2026`).
</Note>

## Viewing and Downloading a Document

Click any document in the list to open or download it. BridgePoint generates a **signed URL** that is valid for **1 hour**. After that time, the link expires and a new one is generated automatically the next time you click the document.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="View in browser">
    Click the document name or the preview icon. PDFs open in your browser's built-in viewer. Images display inline.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Download">
    Click the download icon next to the document. The file is downloaded to your device using its original storage name.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## Archiving a Document

Archiving removes a document from the active Documents tab without permanently deleting it. Use archiving when a file is outdated, uploaded in error, or superseded by a newer version.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Locate the document">
    Find the document in the Documents tab.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the document menu">
    Click the **⋯** (more options) button on the document row.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Archive">
    Click **Archive**. The document is immediately removed from the active list. The archive timestamp and the email of the staff member who archived it are recorded on the document record.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Archived documents are not deleted from storage. Contact your BridgePoint administrator if you need to restore an archived document.
</Note>

## Document Checklist at Intake

During intake, BridgePoint tracks which required documents have been collected based on the programs the client applied for. The following documents are flagged as intake-required:

* **Release Authorization Form** — required for all clients
* **Medicaid Intake Form** — required for all clients
* **Income Attestation Form** — required when any program is selected
* **ACA Pre-Qualification Form** — required when Medicaid or ACA is selected
* **FFM Consent** — required for clients with a non-ACA program (Medicaid, SNAP, TCA, or Medicare) on file

Any required document that has not yet been uploaded appears as missing in the post-intake checklist on the Documents tab.

<Tip>
  If you processed a client using the legacy paper bypass during intake, upload scanned copies of each signed paper form using the corresponding **Paper Scan** document types (e.g., **Marketplace Release (Paper Scan)**) so the intake checklist reflects the documents on file.
</Tip>
