Provider credentialing can be complicated, time-consuming, and constantly changing. Missing information, incorrect applications, expired credentials, or payer delays can create problems that reach far beyond the administrative office.
They can delay provider start dates. Disrupt billing. Create claim issues. And ultimately cost your practice revenue.
Mercury Group manages the credentialing process so your team doesn’t have to.
Credentialing is the process of verifying a healthcare provider’s qualifications and enrolling that provider with insurance companies, health plans, hospitals, and other organizations.
Providers may need ongoing verification of licenses, certifications, education, training, work history, malpractice coverage, affiliations, and other qualifications. Payer requirements can vary, and information must remain current over time.
Mercury Group helps manage these details from initial credentialing through ongoing maintenance and recredentialing.
