Credentialing
The credentialing process ensures that all licensed advanced practice providers meet a minimum standard for credentials, privileges and performance standards.
Credentialing applications are submitted and reviewed by the medical staff committee and in addition by Interdisciplinary practice committee for all Nurse Practitioners.
New applicants requesting credentialing and privileges must complete the application and turn in all related documents. Incomplete applications will not be processed.

Once approved, you may perform the procedure independently.
