Fast Credentialing = Faster Coverage
A sluggish credentialing process can delay care and hurt revenue. Here’s how to speed it up:
✅ Best Practices
- Use a locum tenens credentialing process with dedicated workflows
- Partner with agencies that offer pre-vetted, “privileging-ready” candidates
- Use digital platforms for tracking, verification, and compliance
⏱️ Temporary Privileges: Your Secret Weapon
Leverage Joint Commission–approved temporary privileges for urgent needs to get short-term physician coverage within 72 hours.
Collaboration Is Key
Coordinate with:
- Your medical staff office
- Clinical leadership
- Your locum tenens partner
Credentialing isn’t just admin—it’s a strategic priority in 2025.
