Streamline your practice's insurance enrollment and compliance. We take the hassle out of medical credentialing, ensuring Tucson and Southern Arizona providers remain compliant and get properly enrolled with insurance networks.
Medical credentialing is essential for providers who want to accept insurance, remain in good standing with payers, and build trust with patients. Without proper credentialing, insurance claims may be denied, leading to revenue loss and operational setbacks.
Our expert team handles every step of the process โ from gathering documentation to completing applications and tracking deadlines โ so you can focus on providing quality patient care.
Avoid claim rejections due to incomplete or outdated credentials.
Patients prefer in-network providers, leading to more appointments.
Stay compliant with state, federal, and insurance company requirements.
Expand your reach by getting approved with more insurance panels.
We manage the entire process on your behalf โ here's what to expect from start to finish.
We collect your licenses, DEA certificate, malpractice history, education records, and work history.
We create or update your CAQH profile, which most payers use as the foundation for credentialing.
We complete and submit applications to each payer you want to join โ Medicare, AHCCCS, and commercial plans.

We assist providers in enrolling with Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance networks, ensuring all documentation is accurate and submitted on time for seamless onboarding.

Many insurance providers require a CAQH profile for credentialing. We handle setup, maintenance and reattestation to keep your profile active and current.
CAQH requires providers to reattest โ confirm and update their profile โ every 120 days. It sounds simple, but missing the window causes your profile to go inactive, which can delay claim processing and trigger re-credentialing requirements with payers who rely on CAQH for ongoing eligibility checks.
Many providers don't realize their profile has lapsed until a claim is denied or a payer flags them as inactive in their network. By then, the fix can take weeks.
We monitor reattestation deadlines for all of our clients and handle the update before the window closes โ so your profile stays active and your billing is never interrupted.
What we do at every reattestation:
CAQH (Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare) maintains a centralized provider database used by most major insurers. Every 120 days, providers must log in and confirm their information is still accurate โ this is called reattestation. If you miss the deadline, your profile is marked incomplete and payers can no longer access your credentialing data.
We wrote a full guide breaking down what's required, common mistakes, and how to stay ahead of deadlines.
