Question
According to c0050 "ID alternative provider" definition it looks like the entity should only report Alternative Provider when these providers are already reported in Z09.01. In the case an entity has a contingent contract of substitution with an alternative provider which currently doesn't provide any services to the entity, should the entity report this alternative provider? In affirmative case, which c0050 ID should we provide?

Answer
According to the instructions of the Annex on IT solutions, template Z_09.04 should be filled in with regard to alternative providers that are CCPs. Alternative Providers must be reported in Z 09.01 only if there is an established contractual relationship with them and, in line with the instructions in c0020 “Entity name”, the service is used. Should the reporting entity not have an established contractual relationship with the alternative provider and should it not use the service, the alternative provider does not need to reported in Z 09.01 and Z 09.04.
