We’ve all been there. The to-do lists are stacked higher and higher daily, and you feel like you can’t get ahead. For medical providers, these lists seem mountainous because every task is essential to provide quality care for patients. One of those daunting tasks is the primary source verification of the provider’s credentials, and with 5ACVO, you can easily knock out items like this one.
What is PSV (Primary Source Verification)?
An individual must often have a license or certificate indicating that they are qualified to practice in certain professions. This is crucial for the medical profession.
Medical facilities, hospitals, health plans, and medical practices are essential in protecting patients by ensuring that the medical providers they work with are properly trained, educated, and have no prior history of doing damage. Primary Source Verification, or PSV, comes into play here: it verifies whether or not someone has the proper (and valid) license, registration, or certificate, as well as education, training, and work history of providing care to patients.
Primary Source Verification verifies a provider’s credentials, such as education, training, work history, license, certifications, peer reviews, and more. Here is a list that shows many provider credentials that must be properly verified in order for the provider to serve patients and begin billing legally.
What Is A CVO (Credentialing Verification Organization)?
A CVO like 5ACVO can cut credentialing workload by 88%, leaving medical entities with more control over the tasks they need to complete. It also allows busy medical professionals to dedicate more time to patient care and ensure quality medical attention for their clients.
