Provider credentialing is the process of reviewing a healthcare professional's qualifications, licensure, training, work history and other information against applicable organizational or payer requirements.
Provider enrollment involves completing the required administrative steps for a physician, practitioner or eligible organization to participate in a payer program.
These processes are related but not identical. Each health plan or public program may have different application steps, documentation requirements and approval procedures.

A structured tracking process helps healthcare administrative teams maintain visibility into pending documents, application responses and upcoming actions.

Commercial payers, CAQH and government programs may also require periodic attestations, renewals, recredentialing or enrollment revalidation.

Find answers about payer credentialing, Medicare enrollment, CAQH profiles, Medicaid procedures and recredentialing.
Provider credentialing is the process of verifying relevant professional qualifications, such as licensure, education, training and other information required by a healthcare organization or payer.
Credentialing focuses on qualification verification. Enrollment involves the administrative processes required for a provider or organization to participate in a particular payer program. Some payer workflows combine elements of both.
CAQH provider profile management involves maintaining applicable professional information, supporting documentation and attestations that may be accessible to authorized organizations. Profile completion does not guarantee payer approval.
PECOS is CMS's online Medicare provider enrollment management system. It supports applicable initial enrollment, changes in information, revalidation and other enrollment activities.
No. Medicare and Medicaid are different programs with their own enrollment requirements. Medicaid enrollment procedures may vary by state and managed care plan.
Depending on the payer and provider type, requirements may include NPI details, professional licenses, education and training information, board certifications, malpractice coverage, practice details and other supporting records.
Processing times vary by payer, provider type, application completeness, verification requirements and program procedures. No single timeframe applies to every payer credentialing or enrollment application.
Recredentialing is a periodic review of a provider's qualifications or records as required by a payer or organization. Medicare revalidation is a separate program-specific enrollment maintenance process.
No. Submission alone does not establish approval, network participation or billing eligibility. The provider must confirm relevant payer approval, effective dates, contracts and program requirements.
Healthcare practices may outsource selected administrative activities such as documentation collection, application coordination, CAQH profile maintenance and payer follow-up, subject to permissions and agreed service scope.
