Loula is a platform that helps doulas in California accept and bill insurance by handling credentialing, eligibility checks, and claims submission. Doulas join the network, get credentialed with multiple health plans through a single application, and submit visits via the Loula Portal. Loula pays doulas twice monthly regardless of delays or denials from health plans.

/ How it works /

Doulas complete one online application to get credentialed with multiple health plans, then submit visits through the Loula Portal while Loula handles billing, denials, and bi-monthly payments.
