Why Credentialing Matters

  1. Insurance Reimbursements: Without proper credentialing, you can’t bill insurance companies, leading to lost revenue.
  2. Compliance: Credentialing ensures your providers meet state and federal regulations, avoiding penalties.
  3. Patient Trust: Being credentialed with major payers builds trust with patients who rely on insurance coverage.
  4. Practice Growth: Credentialing allows you to expand your network and attract more patients.

The Credentialing Process

Credentialing involves several steps, including:

  • CAQH Profile Setup: Creating or updating CAQH profiles for your providers.
  • NPPS Account Creation: Setting up NPPS accounts for Medicare and other payers.
  • State License Registration: Registering or verifying state licenses.
  • Payer Enrollment: Submit applications to insurance companies and follow up for approval.
