FAQ

How do I know if my practice infrastructure is set up correctly?

Many practices operate with hidden vulnerabilities such as incomplete enrollments, misconfigured billing systems, outdated contracts, or inconsistent reporting.

We conduct structured infrastructure reviews to assess credentialing status, payer activation, EFT and ERA configuration, denial trends, and revenue flow stability.

If gaps are identified, we provide a corrective roadmap that strengthens operational clarity and long-term reimbursement consistency.

Can you help if my credentialing was approved but I am not getting paid?

Yes. Approval does not always mean active contract status in payer systems.

We review effective dates, contract loading, billing configuration, clearinghouse enrollment, and payer activation to identify and resolve post-approval payment disruptions.

Do you work with new practices or only established ones?

We work with both startups and established practices.

New practices benefit from structured setup and compliance planning. Established practices often need cleanup, denial resolution, or reporting clarity.

What documents are required to begin credentialing?

Yes. Approval does not always mean active contract status in payer systems.

We review effective dates, contract loading, billing configuration, clearinghouse enrollment, and payer activation to identify and resolve post-approval payment disruptions.

Do you assist with EHR system setup?

Yes. We support the configuration of electronic health record systems to ensure billing workflows align with payer requirements.

This includes claims submission setup, clearinghouse configuration, ERA and EFT enrollment, and reporting optimization.

We also recommend and work closely with platforms such as TherapyNotes to ensure practices operate with compliant and efficient billing infrastructure.

(Notice we promoted TherapyNotes without sounding like an ad.)

Do I need a Tax ID or NPI to get credentialed?

To begin credentialing, you must have an active National Provider Identifier and a legal business structure.

If enrolling under a group practice, a Tax Identification Number is required. Solo providers may credential under a Social Security Number or EIN depending on structure and payer requirements.

We guide providers through proper entity setup, NPI registration, CAQH configuration, and payer-specific enrollment prerequisites before submission to prevent rejections.

How long does credentialing take?

Credentialing timelines vary depending on the payer and state. On average, commercial insurance enrollment takes 60–120 days. Medicare enrollment may take 30–90 days once documentation is properly submitted.

Medicaid enrollment timelines vary by state and can range from 45–120 days depending on state requirements, Medicare linkage, and managed care participation.

We manage the full process, monitor application status, and proactively follow up with payers to reduce avoidable delays. While timelines are ultimately controlled by the insurance carrier, structured oversight significantly improves efficiency and prevents unnecessary setbacks.

What happens if there is an issue with a contract once credentialing is complete and claims are rejected?

If claims are rejected after credentialing approval, we perform a structured review to determine whether the issue is related to:

• Contract activation delays

• Incorrect effective dates

• Group vs. individual enrollment mismatches

• Billing configuration errors

• Payer system processing errors

We analyze denial codes, verify contract status, and communicate directly with the payer to resolve discrepancies. Infrastructure doesn’t stop at approval — it includes post-enrollment stabilization.

Do you offer billing services?

Yes. We offer revenue cycle support that includes billing system setup, claims workflow design, denial analysis, and reporting structure development.

Depending on the needs of the practice, we provide either full-service billing management or infrastructure consulting to help your internal team operate efficiently and compliantly.

Our goal is not just claim submission; it is reimbursement stability.

Do I have to credential with Medicare to become in-network with Medicaid?

In many states, Medicaid enrollment requires either Medicare enrollment or proof of Medicare eligibility before participation can be finalized. However, requirements vary by state and by Medicaid plan.

We evaluate your state-specific requirements and guide you through the proper enrollment sequence to avoid delays and prevent enrollment rejections.
