When onboarding a new provider to your practice, the slightest errors can result in significant reimbursement delays and rejection of your provider credentialing application package. To fully credential and contract the provider with payers, you must complete specific requirements, documents, and payer-specific requirements. Failure to do so can impact your provider/practice revenue and greatly affect patient care. Even simple errors can cause payers to delay or reject your application package. This can lead to you having to start over with the entire credentialing process. Your new provider must start seeing patients as soon as possible to lessen the financial impact.

During this webinar, Expert Cati Harris, CBCS, walks you through each step of the credentialing process for providers. You will learn documentation requirements, application requirements, payer-specific requirements, document, and application package prep, credentialing package submission, setup, and maintenance of CAQH, PECOS, and tracking of applications submitted to payers, and final steps once approval has been received. This will also include a review of provider revalidations. You will also learn how you can make your onboarding process more efficient and accurate to speed up your billing process and get paid more quickly.
