What is Medical Credentialing?
We evaluate your current license, training, and experience, competence, and ability to verify you have the qualifications to care for your patients or perform medical procedures. The process is complicated as without medical credentialing you will face challenges in meeting the requirements of:
- Third-party payers
- Organizational standards of accrediting bodies
- Expansion of your scopes of service
Medical credentialing is now a process required by health care practices, surgical centers, and long-term care organizations.
The Medical Credentialing in Clearwater that Practices Need
As a healthcare practitioner, medical credentialing is required before you provide care to your patients. The process requires both pre-application and the application itself. The actual application then requires re-credentialing and renewal every two years. Your organization is responsible for maintaining the privileges and credentialing of the practicing medical providers at your clinic.
You must validate the competency of your medical team using the credentialing and privileging processes required under both state and federal laws. Medical credentialing is tied to both accreditation standards, as well as reimbursement. Detailed and consistent credentialing and privileging is the best way to ensure your practice remains sustainable. Without these processes in place, you’ll face challenges that negatively impact your ability to practice. This is where we can help.
Comprehensive Monitoring
We provide medical credentialing to keep participating providers in your health insurance network up to date. This includes requesting, contracting, and enrolling with the plan. Accelerated Medical also submits copies of licenses, insurance, signed contracts, and other documentation to the Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare system. Most insurance providers use this system to access up to date documents. This is an important stage of the enrollment process.
