Physician Credentialing & Contracting
Full credentialing lifecycle management — document gathering, payer applications, follow-up, and contract negotiation — so your providers can start billing without costly delays.
What we handle
- Payer enrollment (Medicare, Medicaid, commercial)
- CAQH setup and maintenance
- Re-credentialing and expirables tracking
- Contract review and fee-schedule negotiation
- Status tracking with regular updates
Why it matters
A provider who isn't credentialed can't bill — every week of delay is lost revenue. Lapsed credentials cause silent denials that are painful to unwind.
How ERG delivers
We manage the entire process end to end and keep you updated throughout, so new providers come online fast and stay in-network without gaps.

Questions about this service
Does ERG handle payer enrollment as well as credentialing?
Yes. The scope can include provider credentialing, payer enrollment, application follow-up, revalidation and maintenance, depending on the practice's needs.
When should credentialing start for a new provider?
Start as early as reasonably possible once the provider and start plan are confirmed. Processing times and network availability vary by payer.
Does submitting an application mean the provider can bill?
No. Submission is only one milestone. The practice needs documented approval, the correct billing relationship and a confirmed effective date.
Can ERG guarantee payer approval or a specific effective date?
No. Payers control network participation, processing and effective dates. ERG can manage complete submissions, follow-up and documentation, but should not promise a payer's decision.
