The State of License and Credential Verification in Provider Organizations Written By Cristina Stahr Share this Though 99% of healthcare executives agree that accurate and timely credential verification supports quality of care for patients, workflow and data integrity challenges remain for much of the industry. Many healthcare organizations seek a better way to verify provider eligibility as regulations shift and budgets tighten. The need to verify provider credentials isn’t new; yet, for many healthcare organizations, the process hasn’t become more efficient. Changing regulations, disjointed data, and complex processes make credential verification difficult to navigate for many provider organizations. Despite these challenges, 84% of healthcare executives expect to devote more attention and resources to credential verification over the next 18-24 months.
