The Problem No One Is Solving Fast Enough
Healthcare demand is rising. Provider networks are expanding. But the administrative infrastructure that underpins provider enrollment and credentialing has not kept pace. The result: a process that can stretch up to 120 days for a single provider, departments that report to different leaders and operate in disconnected systems, and credentialing specialists each managing portfolios of 120 to 150 providers with no relief in sight.
Nearly one in four healthcare executives is dissatisfied with how credentialing works at their organization. Four in ten are dissatisfied with credentialing timelines. The industry knows it has a problem. Fewer know how to fix it.
| $7,500 in daily revenue lost per physician due to enrollment delays | 120 days maximum time to complete credentialing for a single provider | $350 Bn lost annually to administrative complexity in the U.S. healthcare system |
