Credentialing

The process of verifying a healthcare provider's qualifications, licenses, certifications, and insurance participation to ensure they meet payer and regulatory requirements.

In Detail

Credentialing is required before a PT can bill insurance companies. The process typically takes 60-120 days and includes: license verification, education verification, malpractice history, work history, and payer enrollment. Re-credentialing occurs every 2-3 years. Delays in credentialing mean lost revenue from unbillable services. PRACTIS tracks credentialing deadlines and alerts practice administrators 90 days before expiration.
