Professional Insurance Credentialing Services
The insurance web gets more complicated each year. There are continuous changes in laws and regulations, health coverage, and reimbursement. Insurances have many different plans to choose from. There might be five to ten different plans under one insurance umbrella. Even established practices have to do new credentialing for newly created insurance plans.
It is of utmost importance to retain a copy of all contracts. Each contract comes with designated fee schedule, rules, and limitations for the provider. Contracts must be maintained and updated to assure proper payment for claims. We are prepared to do any credentialing work needed by established providers in the practice as well as new providers. We can help with building CAQH and state licensing as well. We can also work on new contracts with insurances.
