So, here I am at my new job. I like it so far. It has been a breeze working here compared to working at CHG. I have twice the work to do, but I only have to put in half the effort. In case you don’t know what I do, I am a Credentialing Specialist. I check the background, Licensing, Education, Insurance, and Disciplinary actions on Medical Providers including, but not limited to MD/DO, PT, OT, DPM, OD, DC, DMD, MFT, LPC, RN, LPN and NP’s. If you don’t know what those all mean that’s okay just know that they are all medical professionals that you may or may not see in your life that all need to be Credentialed.
On a daily basis I run NPDB’s, OPM/GSA’s, Board Certifications, Current State Licenses and DEA’s. I review Current Hospital Privileges, Highest level of Medical Training/Professional Training, Liability Insurance, Work History and Disciplinary Actions.
That is what I do at my job now... at my old job you could add obtaining: ECFMG’s, FSMB’s, OIG’s, ALL State Licenses, ALL Hospital Privileges past and present, ALL Education, ALL Claims History for Liability Insurance, Primary Source verify Work History... etc, etc.
Wow, that makes me sound like a busy girl. No wonder I am so tired when I get home from work every day.
All views expresed are my own and not that of Coventry Health Care.
