Behavioral Healthcare Credentialing Done Right Talking Treatment

    • Mental Health

What is Credentialing and why is it so important? As a single word it has emerged to define an important process! The act of credentialing verifies your staff’s ability to legally provide the service offered to a patient (based on Federal and State mandates) and contractually meet the defined requirements of your payers. There can be no shortcuts in credentialing, but the process often seems like a labyrinth.



(This conversation took place June 8, 2023. Watch this as a video.)



The webinar was led by Carol Gorbett, a credentialing expert with over 20 years of experience, with a specialty in behavioral health. Her motto is “Let Us Power Through the Paperwork”. Contact Carol.
