Medical credentialing refers to a process of reviewing healthcare provider’s credentials so that a patient can verify their professional standing before seeking medical help.
Healthcare provider credentialing is a process of reviewing different pieces of data for every medical professional. It includes training and education licensing, residency, qualifications, specialty certificates, and career history.
Every medical professional should go through this new practice credentialing before changing states or starting a new practice. Medical credentialing comprises healthcare provider credentialing and provider enrollment.
Provider Credentialing is the process of authenticating the training, skills, qualifications, licensing, etc., as mentioned above. Provider Enrollment is the procedure of registering a healthcare provider with insurance plans like Medicare and Medicaid.
Along with helping medical professionals develop a thriving practice, medical credentialing is vital for insurance reimbursement.
Our clients often tell us that they don’t have the means to afford an outsourced credentialing service and review their physicians in-house. However, after reviewing, we’ve discovered that managing medical credentialing in-house is more costly than outsourcing it.
