Which LoCicero Medical Group service should you start with?

PRIMARY CARE You need routine or ongoing medical care

Start with primary care for preventive visits, common illnesses, medication management, diabetes, high blood pressure and coordination with specialists.

SPECIALTY CARE You already know what kind of specialist you need

LoCicero Health lists multiple specialties including behavioral health, dermatology, ENT, gynecology, hematology, nephrology, neurology, pulmonology, rheumatology and podiatry.

Check first whether your insurance requires a referral or prior authorization.
SUPPORT SERVICES You need testing, therapy or coordinated care

The practice also offers laboratory services, diagnostic testing, physical therapy, infusion therapy, wound care, connected-care programs and medication support.

Confirm the exact location because not every service is available at every office.

Appointment access

How to schedule a LoCicero Medical Group appointment correctly

LoCicero Health says access to the practice is by appointment and that the team strives to maintain same-day appointment availability.

Choose primary care or specialty care Start with the reason for the visit rather than simply choosing the closest office.
Identify the provider or department Use the current provider directory to match your condition with the appropriate medical team.
Confirm new-patient availability Provider availability changes, so check whether the clinician is currently accepting new patients.
Give your exact insurance product Provide the full plan and network name printed on the card, not only the insurance company.
Ask whether a referral is required This is especially important for HMO plans and specialty visits.
Confirm the physical office Repeat the street address and suite because the practice operates multiple Tampa Bay locations.
Ask what should be completed before arrival New-patient and specialty-specific forms may need to be completed before the visit.
Schedule the next follow-up at checkout The official office policy specifically encourages patients to arrange follow-up visits before leaving the office.
Useful appointment call script
“I need an appointment for [reason]. I am a [new/existing] patient and my insurance is [exact plan/network]. Which provider should I see, which office will the appointment be at, do I need a referral, and what forms or records should I complete before I arrive?”

First appointment

New patient preparation: what to do before your first visit

Patient portal

How LoCicero Medical Group patient portal registration works

Portal access is not simply a public username-and-password signup. The official instructions require the patient to contact the practice first.

Call the office Contact 813-876-7073 and ask to register for patient-portal access.
Provide a valid email address Staff use the email address to begin the registration process.
Check your email Watch for portal login instructions. Check spam or junk folders if the message does not appear.
Follow the browser instructions The practice specifically provides browser-setting guidance as part of portal setup.
Sign in with the issued credentials Use the username and password provided through the registration process.
Portal features may vary. LoCicero Health says portal functionality is being introduced in stages, so a patient may not see every feature immediately after registration.
Do not wait on portal messaging for an urgent problem. Use the office phone for time-sensitive medical questions and emergency services for potentially life-threatening symptoms.
Open official portal instructions
Referral rule

LoCicero Medical Group referral and authorization process

This is one of the most important policies to understand before scheduling an outside specialist.

Check whether your plan requires authorization HMO and other managed-care plans may require a referral before a specialist visit.
Be prepared for a LoCicero office visit The practice states that a patient needing an authorization or referral may be required to schedule an office visit first.
Check when you were last seen If more than three months have passed since the previous visit, another appointment may be required before the referral can be issued.
Give at least five business days The official policy asks patients to notify the office at least five business days before the specialist appointment.
Verify that the specialist actually received it Before traveling, call the specialist and confirm the referral and authorization are in the receiving system.
Common delay: Scheduling a specialist first and requesting the referral one day before the visit can create an avoidable cancellation, especially when the insurance company must authorize the service.
Medication policy

Why LoCicero Medical Group may require a visit for a refill

The practice’s published policy says new prescriptions and routine prescription refills require evaluation during an office visit. Routine requests are not normally accepted by telephone during or after office hours.

At every medication visit

Ask how many refills are being issued and when the next monitoring appointment is due.

Before medication runs out

Check the bottle or pharmacy app early enough to schedule the required visit.

Short emergency supply

The office says a small chronic-medication refill may sometimes be granted at the on-call provider’s discretion, followed by a required visit.

Practical refill habit: At checkout, compare the number of tablets and refills with the date of your next appointment. If the medication will run out first, ask the clinical team before leaving.
Lab and diagnostic results

How LoCicero Medical Group handles test results

The current office policy says laboratory and diagnostic test results are reviewed with a provider during an appointment. Some results may appear in the portal, but interpretation and the treatment plan still require a provider discussion.

The result appears in the portal first Do not make medication changes based only on a highlighted flag. Ask the provider what the result means in your clinical context.
The result is not visible online Portal features are still being rolled out, so missing online access does not necessarily mean the test was not completed.
You were told to schedule a follow-up Arrange it before leaving the testing location whenever possible.
You have worsening symptoms while waiting Contact the clinical office rather than waiting only for the result-review appointment.
Virtual care

Who can use LoCicero Health telehealth?

LoCicero describes its video service as a virtual housecall through a secure online platform.

Published eligibility

The telehealth page says virtual housecalls are available to established patients who have been seen in the office within the previous three months.

Appointment availability

Telehealth appointment slots are limited, so patients are instructed to call the office to request a virtual housecall.

Examples of problems the practice lists for virtual care

Common cold symptoms
Upper-respiratory symptoms
Urinary tract infection concerns
Selected medication refills
Laboratory result review
Diagnostic-test review
Pain-medication limitation: The official telehealth page specifically excludes pain-medication refills from the routine virtual-housecall refill examples.

Diagnostic center

The practice states that its diagnostic center has earned the American College of Radiology Gold Seal of Accreditation for ultrasound imaging.

Before testing: Ask whether fasting is required, whether medication should be taken normally, which office performs the test, whether an authorization is needed and when the provider wants to review the result.

Specialty coordination

Infusion services are used alongside areas such as gastroenterology, rheumatology and hematology care.

The official page lists therapies including Remicade, iron infusions and Rituxan among available infusion services.

Do not assume insurance authorization is automatic. Infusion medication can have separate pharmacy, medical-benefit and prior-authorization requirements. Verify the drug, dose, location and approval before the first treatment.

LoCicero Health participates in connected-care services designed around ongoing management of chronic illness.

Who may benefit

Medicare patients with multiple chronic conditions may qualify for enhanced care-management services.

Rx

Some prescriptions may be filled before the patient leaves the office.

↻
Refill tracking

The dispensary database can help track and remind patients about refills.

⌂
Home mailing

The practice says certain refills can be mailed to the patient’s home.

Bring the prescription-benefit card. The practice specifically asks patients interested in using the in-office dispensary to bring that card to the appointment.

Medication Therapy Management is also available through a pharmacist who reviews prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, herbal products and nutritional products for safety and effectiveness.

Insurance verification

Does LoCicero Medical Group accept your insurance?

LoCicero Health says it is an independently owned healthcare provider that contracts with many HMO, PPO and indemnity networks and is also a Medicare provider.

Do not rely on the insurance-company name alone. A company may offer multiple networks, employer products, Medicare Advantage plans and marketplace products. One can be in network while another is not.
Read the complete plan name Find the product and network printed on your current member card.
Give the office the exact provider and location Network status can depend on the clinician and service location.
Call the insurer too Use the member-services number on your insurance card.
Ask about referral requirements Do this before specialist care, diagnostic testing, therapy or infusion treatment.
Ask about prior authorization Approval may be required even when the provider is in network.
Ask what you may owe Confirm copay, deductible and coinsurance before the visit.
Published payment rule: Copays, deductibles and coinsurance are due when services are rendered.
Weight Management exception: The practice’s general insurance list specifically says those insurance listings do not apply to services in the Weight Management division. Verify that program separately.
Insurance verification script
“My insurance is [full plan and network]. I am seeing [provider] at [exact location] for [service]. Can you confirm that the provider and location participate with this exact plan, whether I need a referral or prior authorization, and what amount is expected at the visit?”
Check the current insurance page
Billing and online payment

How to pay a LoCicero Medical Group bill safely

The practice accepts online payment for services it has rendered. The official payment form encrypts submitted information and forwards the payment details to the billing department.

Compare the statement with the visit Verify the patient name, service date, provider and amount.
Compare insurance processing If insurance was used, review the insurer’s Explanation of Benefits before assuming the patient balance is final.
Question an unfamiliar charge Call 813-876-7073 before paying if the service, adjustment or insurance amount does not make sense.
Use the official payment page Confirm that you are on the LoCicero Health website before entering payment information.
Pay through the official billing page
Medical record transfer

How to transfer medical records to or from LoCicero Health

LoCicero Health provides different authorization forms depending on the direction of the transfer.

Another practice → LoCicero Health

Use the authorization designed to request records from another organization and have them sent to LoCicero Health.

LoCicero Health → another practice

Use the release form authorizing LoCicero to send your records to another provider or organization.

Behavioral-health records are handled separately. The official records page provides separate behavioral-health release forms for both incoming and outgoing records.

Before submitting a records request

Use the patient’s legal name
Include date of birth
Identify the receiving organization
Use a specific date range
Specify which records are needed
Sign and date the authorization
Include required representative authority
Keep a copy before submission
Specialist-visit tip: Do not simply request “all records” when only a few items are needed. Ask the receiving specialist which notes, laboratory results, imaging reports or images are necessary so the important material is easier to identify.
Choose the correct records form
Care beyond the clinic

Home medical care, hospital care and nursing-home services

Home medical care

Mobile providers can visit patients at home or in residential settings when health problems, mobility or transportation make an office visit difficult.

Hospitalist care

LoCicero operates a hospitalist division focused on care of acutely ill hospitalized patients and coordination around transitions of care.

Nursing-home services

The organization describes a multidisciplinary team caring for patients in nursing-home facilities in the Tampa area.

Why this matters locally: A patient who becomes unable to travel should ask whether home medical care is appropriate rather than automatically assuming the only options are cancelling the appointment or going to an emergency department.
Problem solver

Common LoCicero Medical Group patient problems and what to do next

You cannot create a portal account Call 813-876-7073 first. Portal registration begins through the practice and requires a valid email address.
You need a specialist referral tomorrow Call immediately, but understand the office requests at least five business days and may require a recent primary-care visit.
You ran out of medication Routine refills require a visit. Ask whether the provider can issue a short chronic-medication supply while you arrange the required appointment.
You see a lab result but do not understand it Schedule the provider review requested by the office instead of interpreting the result from a portal flag alone.
You are going to the Brandon office Confirm whether your appointment is on Oakfield Drive or South Parsons Avenue.
Your specialist says no records arrived Confirm which release form you completed, the recipient information and whether behavioral-health records require a separate authorization.
You cannot travel to an office Ask whether mobile home medical care may fit your circumstances.
You need a same-day primary-care appointment Call early and ask specifically about same-day availability, which the practice says it strives to maintain.
