You Don’t Have To Obtain Your Credentialing Alone
When you enroll with a PPO insurance company and become credentialed, this could help you bring in new patients, as they save money if they carry plans with those PPO insurance companies. But the credentialing process could be more intimidating and difficult then you may assume. In today’s blog, our PPO Experts explain how we can help you throughout the whole process!
What Happens When You’re Credentialed?
When you enroll with a company and become credentialed, this means that your dental office is now in-network with them. As a result, you can update your website to let people know you accept this coverage. The insurance company could also refer clients in your community to your office, helping you gain new patients. After all, when choosing an office to visit, one that could save significant money on treatment and completely cover preventive care is the one that is likely going to get a new patient. For this reason, many offices become credentialed with multiple PPO providers.
The Application Process
To be in-network, you need to complete the application form. While that may sound simple, the form itself is quite extensive. For example, it could take about 40 hours on average to complete. If you miss one question or get one wrong, you have to start the entire process over. Once you start the form, you must finish it too. This is also per company, so if you want to become in-network with multiple providers, you could be looking at over a hundred hours of work. Not to mention renewals and other aspects of the process. At your dental practice, whether you’re a small office or a large one, every member of your team has a full plate of tasks to keep the office running smoothly and provide quality care to each patient. Few have time to dedicate to this process without slowing down the daily tasks needed to keep your practice running smoothly. Which is why you should consider working with a team of experts.
