predesignation
Prior role assignment
Predesignation is the act of designating something in advance—choosing or specifying before the relevant time arrives.
The term appears most often in bureaucratic and legal contexts: predesignation of a personal physician allows employees to name their doctor before a workplace injury occurs.
Insurance, healthcare, and administrative systems use predesignation to establish choices ahead of need.
