Are you Ready to Defend Against a Negligent Credentialing Lawsuit
Proper provider credentialing is important to ensure quality patient care, but it is also necessary to protect your health center from negligent credentialing litigation. Failure to follow a consistent credentialing process or failure to complete the process in its entirety may lead to a negligent credentialing cause of action. In the event of litigation, the veracity of provider credentialing is heavily scrutinized, which can, in turn, lead to greater exposure and liability on the part of your health center.
Join Ted Gottis, Senior Vice President of MedTrainer, for an informative webinar that will give you the tools you need to understand the basics of credentialing, how credentialing should be performed, and how litigation arises when credentialing is not performed consistently and correctly.
