Credential Automation Saves Time and Money
If an automated credential management system is in place, it can be simple and straightforward, requiring limited staff resources. However, things can get complicated quickly when a healthcare company only utilizes a manual system.

Some healthcare businesses use a self-report approach to credential management. They require the individual rehab specialist, nurse, care worker, therapist, or other medical professionals to report their updated credentialling to the company. This often requires many reminders and occasional handholding. And, with this approach, credentialling deadlines can fall through the cracks.

Others have decided that self-reporting alone doesn’t work. Instead, they hired one person or a team to track credentialing and continuously remind their medical staff, travel nurses, and PRN therapists to report credential updates. This process is onerous and can take hundreds of hours each month.

There is another way to build a credential management system.
How to Systematize Credential Management
Home health companies and in-home therapy businesses need a way to systematize and automate credential management so that deadlines never get missed, without having to assign entire teams to keep their medical professionals in compliance.
They need a system that minimally includes the following:
  • Automation
  • Credential tracking and management
  • Credential reminders and verification
  • Storage for all clinician files in one easy-to-access location

You can build this type of system by cobbling existing software or employing software developers to create a customized system to automate the entire process.

There is a third alternative, however. And that is cliniCONNECTS.
