Privileging has only to do with healthcare professionals and facilities.
Primary Source Verification is the first step in the privileging process, during which all required documents that certify a healthcare professional’s education, training, licensure, and more, are gathered.
The process is as time-consuming as it is time-sensitive because verification is required before a healthcare professional can begin work. Having verification done accurately and in a timely manner requires the skill of experienced verification specialists.
It’s why Medusind has a team of experts dedicated to primary source verification.
Medusind can provide ongoing monthly document collection to ensure that all provider documentation is current during the time between the appointment and reappointment cycles. This is vital for hospitals undergoing surveys by certification boards.
Monthly updates for Medical licensure, malpractice insurance, Medicare sanctions, and any other required documentation are also available.
For temporary privileges, the team can accommodate urgent rush files within 48 hours. Should a provider need special temporary privileges, in the case of an emergency procedure or in the event of a local natural disaster relief program, Medusind experts can quickly provide necessary documentation, allowing the hospital to extend temporary privileges.
Primary source verification with Medusind provides less paper and greater security for confidential information.
Our primary source verification service abides by all major certification boards, including The Joint Commission (TJC), Healthcare Facilities Accreditation Program (HFAP), Set Norske Veritas (DNV), National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), and Utilization Review Accreditation Commission (URAC) as required by the client hospital. Medusind also abides by existing facility by-laws covering privileging.
Our team will be an extension of yours – dedicated to the bottom line.
From insurance eligibility to working denials to reporting on revenue improvements, our medical billing services handle what you need.
Primary Source Verification has contracted process timelines of no more than 90 days from the date a file is received.
