How long does provider credentialing take, and how do I speed it up?

Credentialing and payer enrollment typically take 60–120 days, and longer if the application is incomplete or CAQH isn't current. You speed it up by keeping CAQH attested and complete, starting before the provider's start date, and following up with each payer on a schedule instead of waiting.

What actually matters

• Budget 60–120 days per payer, sometimes more
• Keep the CAQH profile complete and re-attested
• Start before the provider's start date, not after
• Submit complete applications — missing items reset the clock
• Follow up with each payer proactively and bill retroactively to the effective date where allowed
