What is Credentialing and Enrollment?

Credentialing is the process of verifying a healthcare provider’s qualifications, training, and professional history to ensure they meet industry standards for delivering patient care. Enrollment, on the other hand, involves the process of enrolling healthcare providers with insurance companies and government programs (such as Medicare and Medicaid), so they can receive reimbursement for the services they provide.

Together, credentialing and enrollment are critical for healthcare providers to maintain their professional standing, comply with regulatory requirements, and get reimbursed for their services. The process can be time-consuming and intricate, which is why our team is here to guide you through every step, ensuring compliance, accuracy, and efficiency.
