The process of obtaining payor enrollment credentialing can take several months to finish. Payors often take months to complete the entire payor credentialing process, with provider credentialing alone taking 90 to 120 days on average. For smaller plans with fewer resources, provider enrollment can take much longer. Healthcare organizations make matters worse by repeatedly failing to finish payor enrollment and failing to gather the necessary documentation for certification. Therefore, firms are likely to encounter delays in claims reimbursement when workflow inefficiencies add time to an already protracted process.
