CAQH ProView is a centralized credentialing database used by most health plans in the United States. It simplifies the credentialing process by allowing providers to enter their information once and share it with multiple payers. Here's everything you need to know to get started and stay compliant.

CAQH ProView is a free, online tool that allows healthcare providers to create and maintain a comprehensive professional profile. Over 1.4 million providers use CAQH, and more than 900 health plans and healthcare organizations rely on it for credentialing verification. It's essentially the industry standard for provider data management.

Registration begins with obtaining a CAQH Provider ID, which is typically assigned when a health plan initiates your credentialing process. You can also self-register at proview.caqh.org. You'll need your NPI number, state license information, and a valid email address to get started.

Your CAQH profile includes: personal information, education and training, practice locations, hospital affiliations, professional references, malpractice history and insurance, work history, and specialty board certifications. Ensure every section is complete — incomplete profiles are the number one cause of credentialing delays.

CAQH requires providers to re-attest (confirm their information is current) every 120 days. Failure to re-attest can result in your profile being deactivated, which can delay or disrupt your credentialing with payers. Set calendar reminders 2 weeks before each re-attestation deadline.

Keep digital copies of all documents organized and readily accessible. Update your profile immediately when any information changes. Don't wait for re-attestation periods to update changes. Authorize all health plans you work with or plan to work with. Contact MED JAAF WELLNESS SOLUTIONS if you need help managing your CAQH profile efficiently.
