What is credentialing?

Credentialing is a term that usually encompasses two separate processes: credentialing and privileging. Credentialing is the primary source verification of a health care practitioner’s education, training, work experience, license, etc. Privileging is granting approval for an individual to perform a specific procedure or specific set of privileges based on documented competence in the specialty in which privileges are requested.

Why does Inova credential?

LMN NY Corporation, like other health care organizations, is legally responsible for knowing that individuals providing patient care are qualified and competent to do so. The Joint Commission, The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), National Committee on Quality Assurance (NCQA), the Virginia Department of Health and other oversight organizations require that members of the medical and allied health staff be credentialed and privileged before working in the facility.
