Payer Credentialing
Payer Credentialing or provider enrollment is a process of asking for a participation in a medical insurance network as a Participating Provider. The process itself includes requesting a contract with an insurance company, completing the payer credentialing application, submitting licenses and other documents to the insurers and every other thing that the insurance company requires from a medical practitioner in order to sign a contract with him.
CAQH
Many of the insurance companies require that a medical provider/requester has a fully completed and up to date profile at CAQH so they can obtain valid information about the provider. Policies of insurance companies differ somewhat when it comes to credentialing process.
Some insurance companies need as much as seven months to complete the credentialing process and sign a contract with the medical providers while others need three months at most.
It is particularly important for healthcare providers to thoroughly document the entire process of the application using certified mail, fax logs and documenting communication with the agents over the phone.
Outsourcing of the process of payer credentialing to specialized companies for medical management has become a general practice of medical providers.
