Send physicians reminder notices to return documentation
July 8, 2020
MSPs often struggle to receive information—including elements of medical staff applications—in a timely manner. Although the responsibility for providing the required information lies with the practitioner, there are certain things MSPs can do to be proactive. Sending out reminder notices before critical items are due to expire helps put the item on the practitioner’s radar (or the radar of their office staff). Some credentialing requirements, such as life support certifications, take several months to renew—the practitioner must attend a renewal course, and, at times, it can take several months to find a class with an opening. Sending reminder notices is a courtesy, of course, but it does help keep busy practitioners on track.
