UM (Referrals, Authorizations & Direct Referrals) Information
Once you have registered for EZ-NET access, you can log in to conduct highly secure functions such as check authorization status, verify member eligibility and request authorization.
The Authorization and Eligibility section of the EZ-NET site contains related features as well as information about current patient status, physicians of record, and more. To view authorization status by member, authorization number, provider ID, simply log in and follow the prompts within the Authorization and Eligibility section. Each authorization summary includes the authorization number, patient ID, patient’s name, authorization status and other details.
In order to obtain EZ-NET access, contracted providers and specialist need to fill out the Provider Web Services (PWS) form and fax it to the number listed on the form. Please when filling out this form provide us with your contact information.
Eligibility Verification
La Vida Medical Group & IPA requires that both contracted and non-contracted providers and specialists re-verify eligibility as close to the date of the scheduled service as possible. For current eligibility verification, providers and specialist need to call the Health Plan that the patient belongs to directly. Due to ongoing changes in eligibility, the best practice is to re-verify eligibility no more than a day prior to providing a prior authorized service. The links to the different health plans can be found on our home page.
To verify noncurrent eligibility, please contact La Vida’s Eligibility desk at: (310) 214-8677 x431
