| Credentialing Info | There are several online modules that need to be completed during the credentialing process – these are not billable at this time. Typically takes 60-90 days, but due to the urgency of the need, they can request temps for qualified providers. That said, we won't likely need temps so long as the file is completed by 10/23/26 in order to go to November meetings. To qualify for temps, no malpractice, must have active PA license/PA DEA, and file must be fully complete, including any training modules. |
