Internal Medicine
Carrie
“It took me almost four months of trying to get enrolled with three major Virginia payers before I called Credex Healthcare. Within two weeks of getting my file, they found all the gaps in my paperwork, filled them in, and sent clean applications to all three providers. I was fully signed up in 85 days. I had never seen a credentialing company with such a well-organized and meticulous team.”
Nurse Practitioner
Isabelo
“In Virginia, getting credentials is a crucial part of starting a solo NP business, and I didn’t have time to handle it all while also taking care of patients. Credex Healthcare took care of all my payment forms and made sure I was approved by the Virginia Board of Nursing. They took the initiative, did a great job, and were always available when I had questions. I didn’t think the process could go so well.”
Family Medicine
Jessica
“At our Virginia Beach group office, we were adding two new doctors and needed to quickly get them credentialed. Credex Healthcare handled both files at the same time for several companies and a hospital system, and they never missed a date. It took 95 days for both companies to get their credentials and start charging. We will work only with Credex Healthcare from now on for all our credentialing and recredentialing needs.”
Psychiatry
Claudia
“It is hard to get credentialed in mental health in Virginia, especially when it comes to Cardinal Care mental health plans and managed care group standards. Credex Healthcare quickly understood what was going on. They took care of everything properly and got me on the panels of all the payers I needed. The process went much more smoothly than anything else I had tried to handle by myself before.”
Multispecialty Group
Keri
“Our Franklin group practice has more than fifteen doctors with a wide range of skills. Getting their credentials used to be a constant source of stress for our management team. With Credex Healthcare on board, we no longer must worry about that. For our whole group, they handle adding new providers, recredentialing rounds, process updates, and CAQH credentialing. Trustworthy, experienced, and just what this size of business needs.”
Document Collection and Application Preparation
Our staff gathers the paperwork you need, maintains your CAQH ProView profile, checks your NPI status, and makes personalized applications for each hospital and payer. Before you send in your application, we also check with the Virginia state government to make sure your credentials are valid.
Primary-Source Verification
We check credentials directly with Virginia medical schools, residency and fellowship programs, board certifying authorities, and the NPDB. To fulfill the Virginia Board of Medicine's standards for clinicians who are moving, we get FCVS verification.
Application Submission
All the target Virginia payers and hospital credentialing committees receive verified applications. Medicare applications are submitted via PECOS, while Cardinal Care applications are submitted through the Cardinal Care Provider Enrollment site. Meanwhile, commercial payer applications are submitted through their dedicated channels.
Active Follow-Up and Committee Review
Our staff checks in with payers and credentialing committees, responds to requests for additional information, and monitors application status to speed up the credentialing process in Virginia.
Recredentialing and Compliance Maintenance
Once initial credentialing is complete, we manage ongoing recredentialing cycles, CAQH attestation updates, Virginia Board of Medicine renewals, and payer contract maintenance.
Credex Healthcare works with Credentialing Verification Organizations (CVOs) to cut down on unnecessary paperwork and speed up the credentialing process for Virginia providers who work in health networks or hospitals across the state.
When registering with multiple health systems or Virginia Hospital & Healthcare Association partner facilities at the same time, Virginia hospitals that accept shared CVO proof have much less paperwork to complete. This is a big plus amid Virginia's expanding hospital market.
CMS rules for Medicare and Cardinal Care Provider Enrollment are fully matched with CVO processes. This means your credentials will meet all government payment standards from the first application, with no back-and-forth.
Virginia hospitals and insurance companies can access the most up-to-date credentialing files in the CVO database. This makes it possible for major provider networks, university medical centers, and integrated delivery systems to verify credentials more quickly and consistently.
CVOs support ongoing recredentialing by frequently checking provider files. This helps your Virginia practice stay in line with hospitals, health plans, and insurance companies' standards for ongoing credentialing without getting in the way of your daily work.
Credex Healthcare makes it easy for healthcare workers in Virginia to obtain credentials, stay in line with regulations, and bill consistently. Our team is ready to help whether you are a new doctor entering the Virginia market, an existing practice adding providers, a virtual medical group looking to offer services in more than one state, or a major health system handling credentialing on a large scale.
With a 98% first-time payer approval rate, a dedicated specialist assigned to every file, and a fully transparent process from application to approval, Credex Healthcare enables providers and practice managers to trust their service to deliver results.
