Credentialing is the process of verifying a physician’s qualifications to practice medicine. It helps improve the quality of care that patients receive and helps keep them safe. Because of its complex and time-consuming nature, many physicians hire a credentialing company to help them with the process. Physician Practice Specialists is a physician credentialing company that can help you through this process.
There are multiple different scenarios where you might want to hire a credentialing company to push paper for you, including:
Your Practice Is New or Growing
If you just started your practice or it is growing quickly, it may be time to hire a credentialing company. As your practice grows, the number of credentialing applications or renewals also increases. This can overwhelm your administrative staff and lead to delays, missed deadlines, and errors, resulting in downtime and delayed payment.
If your practice is new, you may find yourself dealing with many stressful tasks and not having time to handle the credentialing process yourself. Physician Practice Specialists can manage the entire credentialing process so you can focus on patient care.
You Work With Multiple Insurance Networks
Participating in insurance networks can help you expand your patient base while making sure you receive reimbursement for your services. Every insurance network and its credentialing processes are different, which can make it difficult to stay on top of the varying requirements, plans, and updates.
We are well-versed in insurance network credentialing and can help you navigate the process efficiently. With Physician Practice Specialists on your side, you can expect timely approvals and network participation.
You Are Joining a New Practice
If you are joining a new practice or relocating, then you will need to go through the credentialing process again. Relocating can be stressful, even without having to go through the credentialing process. We can help you become fully credentialed as soon as possible. This process generally takes between 90-120 days.
You Want To Minimize Errors and Delays
Errors made during the credentialing process can lead to delays in insurance reimbursements and loss of revenue. In some cases, you may not be allowed to treat patients anymore. We have the systems, processes, and information needed to minimize errors and maintain accuracy. With our assistance, you can expect the credentialing process to go much quicker and smoother than doing it yourself.
You Have Time Constraints
To avoid hold-ups and rejections in the credentialing process, you have to pay very close attention to detail. The tasks are often time-sensitive, leaving a limited amount of time set aside to conquer everything. If you find yourself juggling multiple responsibilities and falling behind, then a credentialing company can help decrease your workload. We can handle the paperwork, follow up with insurance companies, and meet deadlines properly, saving you time and letting you get back to work.
