Overwhelmed with maintenance, credentialing, or compliance. Advanced Quality Compliance offers all the steps in provider credentialing.
Provider Credentialing or Primary Source Verification is the process of organizing and verifying a provider’s professional records. Their NPI, professional licenses, diplomas, certifications, attestations and professional references make up a provider’s professional credentialing file. This process is completed every 2-3 years depending upon an organization’s accreditation status. The process of credentialing is to verify the accuracy and specific data in a provider’s documents as required by different accrediting entities.

When a provider applies for privileges at a Hospital, Surgery Center, Insurance Companies and/or Physician Organization.

Organizations will verify with other third-party agencies, and possibly request a credit report or criminal background search. This process is called Primary Source Verification (PSV) which is the process of requesting and receiving verification of a provider’s stated credentials from the college or other entity that issued the diploma or certificate.
It is very important that your documents are accurate and they all match. Problems begin when there are inaccuracies and discrepancies between various records.

The major question is has the CVO undergone NCQA (National Committee on Quality Assurance) or URAC (Utilization Review Accreditation Commission) review processes?
