Credentialing & payer enrollment services
CAQH, Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial panels — for physicians, NPs, PAs, therapists, and practices nationwide. Pricing listed below.
Start intakeAsk a questionServices
Open any service for the situations it fits.
Initial credentialingCAQH build & attestation, Availity and payer-portal setup, file assembly, applications to up to 6 payers, follow-up through approval — 50% at signing, 50% at submission$1,500 / providerWhen it fits ▾
- You just got your NPI and need to be in-network before seeing your first insured patient.
- You left a group and your enrollments stayed behind — everything must be re-established under your own practice.
- You have been "waiting on the payer" for months with no idea where the application actually stands.
Additional payer applicationEach payer beyond the six included$200 / applicationWhen it fits ▾
- Your patient base spans more plans than the core six — common near state lines or in Medicare Advantage-heavy areas.
- A regional payer matters in your ZIP (our intake suggests them by state automatically).
Ongoing maintenanceCAQH re-attestations, expirables, revalidations, monthly roster review for groups — billing starts at your first approval$75 / provider / moWhen it fits ▾
- CAQH re-attestation lapses every ~120 days if nobody owns it — a stale profile silently stalls every pending application.
- A missed Medicare revalidation deactivates billing entirely; a lapsed license or DEA on file does the same with commercial payers.
- Group practices: providers join and leave — every change ripples across every payer record.
Primary source verificationLicense, education, work history, and board certification verified with the issuing sources$150 / providerWhen it fits ▾
- A hospital, facility, or payer asks for documented PSV evidence and you have none on file.
- You want your file verification-ready before applications go out, so nothing bounces later.
Group onboardingPractice-level setup: Tax ID / Type 2 NPI linkage, group payer records, roster build$500 one-timeWhen it fits ▾
- You are forming a practice: the entity needs its own Type 2 NPI, tied correctly to your EIN, before any group enrollment can start.
- Providers will bill under the group — each needs their individual enrollment reassigned to it (Medicare 855R and payer equivalents).
Contract rate negotiationFee-schedule review and negotiation — fee due only on a successfully improved contract$500 / contractWhen it fits ▾
- A payer contract arrived and you were about to sign the first fee schedule they offered.
- You have real volume with a payer and have never renegotiated — break-even on the fee is usually an uplift under 1%.
Rate monitoring add-onAdded to maintenance: rate monitoring, change alerts, renegotiation calendar — free with 2+ negotiated contracts+$25 / provider / moWhen it fits ▾
- Payers adjust fee schedules quietly — you find out months later on the EOBs.
- Your contracts have renewal windows nobody is tracking; the renegotiation calendar catches them.
NPI procurementType 1 (individual) or Type 2 (organization) NPI application prepared and filed via NPPES, taxonomy set correctly, delivered and registry-verified$100 / NPIWhen it fits ▾
- You are a new practitioner and have never had an NPI — nothing in credentialing can start without it.
- Your new practice entity needs its own Type 2 NPI tied to the EIN before any group enrollment.
- The taxonomy code on an NPI application is cross-checked by every payer later — set wrong, it becomes a silent delay.
Tax ID (EIN) procurementIRS SS-4 prepared and filed; EIN delivered — for newly forming practices$150When it fits ▾
- You are launching a new practice and need the EIN before the bank account, the Type 2 NPI, or any group enrollment.
Fingerprinting coordinationWhen an enrollment requires fingerprints: we identify the requirement, book the correct IdentoGO Live Scan appointment with the right service code, and track results to the agency$75 / occurrenceWhen it fits ▾
- A Medicaid or state program flags your enrollment for fingerprint-based screening and the requirement is unclear.
- The wrong service code wastes the appointment — we book it right the first time, at the location nearest you.

How it works
About 15 minutes online. Your NPI is validated live against the CMS registry as you type; documents upload inline next to the fields they support; regional payers are suggested for your state.
Before anything is submitted, we audit your NPPES record and reconcile it against CAQH and every application — registry mismatches are the most common silent cause of credentialing delays, and most practices never learn that's what stalled them. Then: CAQH profile built and attested, verifications completed, applications prepared payer by payer.
Every application becomes a tracked item in our operations system with an owner, a next follow-up date, and a full activity log. No submission sits untouched more than 14 days — payer development letters, committee cycles, and reapplication windows are calendared the day they appear. Check status anytime with your reference number: no portal, no password.
Effective dates are recorded and your file goes onto the maintenance loop: CAQH re-attestation every ~120 days, license / DEA / malpractice expiration tracking, Medicare revalidation calendar, monthly federal exclusion screening. The things that quietly break credentialing are exactly the things the system never stops watching.
