Affirmation

EasyAccess Care IPA
Utilization Management (UM) decision making is based only on appropriateness of care and service and existence of coverage. EasyAccess Care IPA does not specifically reward practitioners or other individuals for issuing denials of coverage or service care.
EasyAccess Care IPA does not offer financial incentives to UM decision makers that encourage decisions that result in underutilization.
Our practitioners are ensured independence and impartiality in making referral decisions that will not influence hiring, compensation, termination, promotion
any other similar matters.
Members and Providers may request a copy of the criteria used in the decision-making process.
