Quick Answer

How long does provider credentialing take?

Provider credentialing typically takes 60 to 120 days, depending on the payer. It verifies provider qualifications and enrolls them with insurance networks so they can bill and get paid. Starting early and submitting complete applications avoids costly delays in reimbursement.

Why Provider Credentialing Directly Impacts Your Revenue

Without proper credentialing, you cannot bill insurance, period. Every day your credentialing is incomplete is a day you cannot bill the payer, which translates directly to lost, unrecoverable revenue.

For a physician seeing 20 patients daily, a 30-day enrollment delay can mean $30,000–$60,000 in deferred reimbursement.

Potential deferred reimbursement$30,000 – $60,000

Illustrative only: $50–$100 per patient visit × patients per day × days of delay. Actual figures vary by practice and payer mix.

What is CAQH and why do I need it?
CAQH is an online database where providers store their credentialing information in one place. Many commercial payers pull from it when reviewing applications, so an accurate, complete and regularly re-attested profile helps avoid delays. We set up and maintain your CAQH profile for you.
Can you credential multiple providers at once?
Yes. We can work on enrollment for several providers and payers at the same time, tracking every application and sending weekly status updates so you always know where each one stands.
What is re-credentialing?
Re-credentialing is the periodic update and re-verification of a provider’s qualifications that payers require to keep them in network. It also includes re-attestation of CAQH data. We track the deadlines and handle the paperwork so your enrollment never lapses.
