Healthcare professionals expanding their practice into another state may need to obtain professional licensure from the applicable state licensing authority before practicing within that jurisdiction.
Intelix Credentialing provides administrative licensing support for healthcare providers seeking professional licenses in additional states after establishing their original state license.
Because licensure requirements differ by profession, state, licensing authority, and individual circumstances, licensing requests are handled according to the applicable requirements.
Professional licensure is the authorization issued by the applicable licensing authority that permits a healthcare professional to practice within that jurisdiction, subject to applicable laws and professional requirements.
Licensing is separate from insurance credentialing and payer enrollment. A provider who obtains a professional license may still need to complete separate credentialing, payer enrollment, contracting, or healthcare-organization requirements.
Intelix Credentialing helps healthcare providers coordinate the administrative requirements associated with pursuing professional licensure in additional states after establishing their original state license.
The applicable process depends on the profession, state, licensing board, professional history, and required supporting information.
Review the requested state and available provider information.
Coordinate applicable provider information and supporting documentation.
Assist with applicable licensing-related administrative requirements according to the selected scope.
Maintain communication regarding available status information or additional requirements.
A provider expanding into another state may need to address more than one of these processes.
Licensing concerns legal and professional authority to practice within a jurisdiction.
Credentialing generally evaluates a provider's professional qualifications.
Payer enrollment establishes or updates applicable participation and billing information with a health plan or government program.
Intelix Credentialing can help coordinate the administrative requirements associated with pursuing additional professional licensure.
