Provisional credentialing is an optional process that a health plan may incorporate into its credentialing policy. This process provides a managed care organization with the ability to add practitioners to its network prior to completing the full credentialing process. The intention of provisional credentialing is to allow a plan to meet its members’ needs for continuity or quality of care, similar to a hospital’s ability to grant temporary privileges for an immediate patient care need under Joint Commission standards.

Are you a medical staff leader on the fence about attending the 2017 Credentialing Resource Center Symposium? Symposium speaker Todd Sagin, MD, JD, explains why you should join us for two days of education and training, “Credentialing is arguably the most important work medical staff leaders do.

The faculty includes two highly experienced physician leaders familiar with the gamut of issues facing those who take on these challenging roles.”
