Eligibility API

Tip

MDLIVE Eligibility API allows for an eligible member to be created, updated, deactivated, and/or re-activated.

Caution

It is necessary for external systems to maintain/store the MDLIVE ID that is returned on member creation. This MDLIVE ID will be required in order to perform any further actions on this member (i.e. READ, UPDATE, DE-ACTIVATE, RE-ACTIVATE).

⇩⇩⇩ Client Responsibility ⇩⇩⇩

No.	Item	Description
1	Storing MDLIVE Member IDs	Client is responsible for storing MDLIVE Member ID (or unique identifier) in their system. When an API call to add a member is passed to MDLIVE, MDLIVE will respond back with a MDLIVE Member ID that is associated to that member / person record. This MDLIVE Member ID must be used when making any modifications or deleting the member.
2	MDLIVE does not deny service	MDLIVE will not deny service to a member that calls for a consult. If the member is not in our system and provides the group / employer name, our call center will add them into our system so that they can proceed with their consult. At the time the member is added into our system, MDLIVE will generate a new MDLIVE Member ID.
