How Delegated Credentialing Protects Practice Revenue
The High Cost of Credentialing Delays
Credentialing delays are a hidden but significant drain on healthcare practice revenue. When new providers wait 90–120 days (or longer) for payer approval, they cannot bill for services, leading to lost income, disrupted patient care, and administrative inefficiencies.
