WHY IT'S BETTER

Credential Verification Built for Regulated Care Environments

Healthcare credentialing confirms providers meet qualification and licensing requirements before delivering care. It supports patient safety regulatory compliance and defensible staffing decisions.

Primary Source License Verification

Licenses are verified directly with issuing boards and registries. Status restrictions and expiration details are confirmed for accuracy.

Education and Training Validation

Degree’s residency training and certifications are verified with official institutions. This reduces misrepresentation and supports qualification requirements.

Eligibility Review for Regulated Programs

Credentialing workflows often require eligibility review for participation in regulated programs. FACIS® screening can be paired when broader healthcare sanctions visibility is required.

Hybrid Verification Workflow

Automated checks accelerate verification for standard records. Manual review ensures accuracy for complex or non standard credentials.

Reduced Administrative Burden

Credentialing outreach follow ups and documentation are managed on your behalf. Internal teams save time while maintaining control and visibility.

COMMON CONCERNS ANSWERED See How Our Approach Supports Compliance and Consistency

What does healthcare credentialing include?

Healthcare credentialing verifies licenses, education, training, certifications, and professional history used to confirm provider qualifications. The scope is configured by role and facility requirements so credentialing files align to policy and regulatory expectations. Documentation supports committee review, audits, and onboarding controls before patient care begins.

Why is credentialing important in healthcare?

Credentialing confirms providers are qualified and authorized to deliver care within defined scope of practice requirements. Incomplete or outdated verification can create patient safety risk and regulatory exposure during audits and surveys. Documented credentialing files support defensible staffing decisions and compliant onboarding.

How long does healthcare credentialing take?

Timelines vary based on license boards, institutions, and the complexity of the provider profile. Many elements return quickly through standard sources, while manual verification may extend timelines for specialty credentials or non standard records. Reports document completion status for each credential component so teams can manage onboarding timelines.

Can international or specialty credentials be verified?

Yes. International education and specialty credentials can be verified through approved sources and manual verification steps when needed. Additional documentation or translations may be required depending on country and issuing body practices. Results document what was verified and what limitations exist so committees can apply policy consistently.

Does healthcare credentialing include sanctions screening?

Credentialing often includes eligibility review requirements tied to payer, program, and facility standards. Sanctions and exclusions screening can be included when broader healthcare eligibility visibility is required. Results remain documented alongside credential verification to maintain complete credentialing files.

Can credentialing integrate with our systems?

Yes. Credentialing workflows can integrate with ATS, HRIS, and credentialing platforms to reduce manual handoffs. Results and supporting documentation can flow into existing committee review processes. Integration supports consistent status visibility and standardized file assembly.

When should FACIS® screening be used with credentialing?

FACIS® screening is recommended when eligibility decisions require broader healthcare sanctions coverage. It complements credential verification for regulated programs.

How are credentialing results delivered?

Results are delivered through standardized reports that list each verification element, status, and documentation notes. Reports support committee packet assembly and consistent review across providers and facilities. Documentation remains audit ready for surveys, inspections, and internal governance.
