| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Chicago (Lncln Park). Manhattan (upper east side). Seattle (Queen Anne), Atlanta, Pittsburgh, DC (Chinatown!), #Columbus #Ohio! #AskAvaility https://t.co/vIJrwSAglF |
| Availity @Availity @ExpressCred Hi Rob! welcome to the chat! #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @JennTapp Hi Jenn!! Thanks for joining! #AskAvaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO I have fond memory of our frequent #Blabs together (including demoing credentials SW!) Have to get you on #Firetalk sometime! #AskAvaility https://t.co/XotoWMUrif |
| Availity @Availity Get ready for Topic 1 coming up in one minute! #AskAvaility https://t.co/ESFdBgwxD9 |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Always! #AskAvaility. (But this one is secret...) https://t.co/nsag3WfL6J |
 | Antoinette Cummins @betterhlthcare Here for the good stuff. #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity T1: How is #healthcare credentialing currently done? How do you wish it was done? #AskAvaility https://t.co/bDv97x9MK8 |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @wareFLO Today most #credentialing consists of completing a PDF, paper application, or some means of electronic application process #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @acummins_health Hi Antoinette! Welcome! #AskAvaility |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba Hi guys. Shereese here. #AskAvaility https://t.co/HFIPtDiJ8T |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @wareFLO Those were good times indeed. I'm happy to do a firetalk with you. We'll have to pick a topic... #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred A1: Small practice- office admin, Large practice- dedicated staff, efficient office- outsourced it #askavaility |
| Shahid Shah @ShahidNShah A1: Healthcare credentialing is alot of manual checking duplicated across institutions. It should be a shared activity. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth Hey Shereese. Thanks for coming with your cool pictures. #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @dflee30 Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Topic. Topic. Topic. Seem like an insurmountable obstacle.. NOT! #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 A1: Blood. Sweat. Tears. #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Today most #credentialing consists of completing a PDF, paper application, or some means of electronic application process #AskAvaility |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @Availity T1 Outsourced or fragmented, but never comprehensive or compliant IMHO #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @ShereesePubHlth Glad you're here! #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth Doesn't she always have the best bitmojis? Honestly #AskAvaility |
| John Weidner @johncanmarket A1: It's currently done in ways that take wayyyy too much time. The future needs to use more connected processes. #askavaility https://t.co/VBxHhVT9Gz |
| Shahid Shah @ShahidNShah A1: When healthcare thinks of automation in credentialing it's old style paper done in digital form but keeps legacy workflow #askavaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @shereesePubHlth, from the payer side you are absolutely correct, very disjointed processes #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Ideal credentialing would be inputting provider data once into a single database, then confirming/updating data as needed #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 A1: There's a lot of institutional knowledge involved. Who to call. Who to trust. How to get them to give you things. Etc. #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @CMichelleBarry See some interesting credentialing systems based on business process management #BPM platforms. Great for complex workflows! #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @dflee30 We agree. Seems that way! #AskAvaility |
 | Ashleigh Eisinger @aneisinger Painfully, it seems. Super inefficient. #askavaility |
 | The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys Good point @CMichelleBarry, if central database was used & properly trusted/shared across institutions that would be ideal #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth @Availity How is it not compliant? Are there common examples? #askavaility |
 | Jeff Brozena @brozena RT @ShahidNShah: A1: A1: Healthcare credentialing is alot of manual checking duplicated across institutions. It should be a shared activity. #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity Yes, one of the biggest issues -- keeping inefficient processes #AskAvaility https://t.co/qaVq1jCJUm |
| Jennifer Tapp @jenntapp @JohnCanMarket Definitely agree with you, John! #askavaility https://t.co/D9hkdgSfkj |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @CMichelleBarry Yup. And it should make it's way to other departments too. For provider directory, billing, etc. #askavaility |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @dflee30 @Availity Most providers, if they don't outsource, don't follow their own policies for credentialing, let alone state-imposed #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity Yes! Lots of moveable parts! #AskAvaility https://t.co/gLeF9RDKyd |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO True. True. #AskAvaility https://t.co/QqbMRnhrZY |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ShimCode Hey Steve. It's been a while. I hope all is well. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 RT @HealthcareGuys: Good point @CMichelleBarry, if central database was used & properly trusted/shared across institutions that would be ideal #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @ShimCode @dflee30 Lurk away, Steve! Glad you can be with us! #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred A1 Problem goes beyond verification workflow, regs and accreditation requirements are antiquated. Think Ferrari on a dirt road #askavaility |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @dflee30 @Availity And we don't see the problem until an issue arises that could have been mitigated by having a credentialing strategy #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred If you could get rid of 1 requirement, what would it be? #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity Get ready for Topic 2 coming up in one minute! #AskAvaility https://t.co/gijK8t2aSb |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @dflee30 @ExpressCred Multiple oversight. We need tech that embraces idea of trust contracts (ex. Blockchain). #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 Why does everyone always think they should go it alone??? #AskAvaility https://t.co/VeRPJR74RV |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A1: Biggest issue might look like workflow or compliance but I think it's lack of trust in a unified network of credentialiers #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity T2: What are some common obstacles encountered in #healthcare credentialing? #AskAvaility https://t.co/66Dheeibx5 |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Connected processes. AKA workflow interoperability. Separate but complementary 2 data interoperability. Just starting 2 tackle. #AskAvaility https://t.co/QqbMRnhrZY |
| Don Lee @dflee30 A1: Exactly :) #AskAvaility https://t.co/Rct5VMmLw6 |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO 3. 2. 1... #AskAvaility https://t.co/UdrhH1KqN4 |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ExpressCred - variation in verification requirements, some paper, some digital - all manual. #askavaility |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A1: If health systems/institutions trusted each others' credentialing data there might be a blockchain-style integrity network #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Data kept in paper form and/or stored in multiple databases (some of which are inaccessible to credentialing profs) #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth @ExpressCred Credentialing is a great use case for #Blockchain. Is anyone working on that @Shahidnshah? #askavaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @HealthcareGuys Not about trust, regulations and accreditation require "primary" source verification in most cases. #askavaility |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A2: The biggest obstacle I see in credentialing is there no "source of truth" which means everyone duplicates work #askavaility |
| John Weidner @johncanmarket Well...it's not like it's a complex process with a lot of deadlines and changes...ya know? #AskAvaility https://t.co/IJWBUG31BM |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred I'm with you on that.... #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 RT @HealthcareGuys: A1: A1: If health systems/institutions trusted each others' credentialing data there might be a blockchain-style integrity network #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity So standardization? Who should set the standard? #AskAvaility https://t.co/NzLcLwE6xr |
| Antoinette Cummins @betterhlthcare @Availity Credentialing = patient safety. Time consuming but critical. Preference for the one and done approach. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @CMichelleBarry I've heard this a lot. IIt's bonkers that someone else in your organization has the data and you can't have it! #askavaility |
| John Weidner @johncanmarket A2: Well it's not like it's a complex process with lots of deadlines and changes...ya know? #askavaility https://t.co/YrY7TgRjTQ |
 | James Leatherwood @HealthITJames A2: Multiple sources of data in different formats: paper diplomas, electronic databases, proprietary storage schemas. 1/2 #askavaility |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys #blockchain will work for credentialing (something I'm doing) but needs trust network @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth @ExpressCred #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Trust = Rationality (+ ROI?) + Repetition (u delivered b4) + Reflexivity (trust u if you trust me) All addressed by WF tech! #AskAvaility https://t.co/HNLr6s7whY |
| Antoinette Cummins @betterhlthcare @HealthcareGuys A2: Who is everyone? #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Being unable to obtain specific data from the provider to complete their application #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @HealthITJames We knew you couldn't stay away :) Thanks for being here! #AskAvaility |
| James Leatherwood @HealthITJames A2 (2/2) It seems like the most of the job is translating all the disparate data sources into one format to fax in. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ShimCode Right! Everybody thinks there a special little snowflake. Truth is that everyone is trying to do the exact same thing #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred @HealthcareGuys Primary source verification means straight from the doctor? #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @acummins_health This is a great point! What do you think about the current process? #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ExpressCred @HealthcareGuys PSV means verifying from the issuing source: License verified by state, diploma by univ #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO In fact, think #Blockchain may b even more relevant propagating workflow state across orgs, than actual data: have post on this #AskAvaility https://t.co/k04pIMbrkQ |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Length of time starting the application process to determination; net new physicians, facilities, and re-credentialing #AskAvaility |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A2: Whether #blockchain or REST / #GraphQL subscriptions for data exchange, companies like @Availity do good job on tech. #askavaility |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A2: But tech alone will not solve the issue, what's required is a network of health systems willing to trust each others' work #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @Availity Smart industry collaborators who are sick of losing money on this should do it together. #askavaility |
| Antoinette Cummins @betterhlthcare A2: Provider uses a comprehensive e-app and plan comes back for more information. #askavaility https://t.co/Rx3dfcIJ9S |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Too many credentialing, re-cred applications; Medicaid, Medicare, Commercial #AskAvaility |
 | Mark Martin @HIT_MMartin @HealthcareGuys do you think #blockchain and it’s built in security is vital to credentialing process? #AskAvaility https://t.co/5inAfykfxj |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred Not to grab the mic from @Availity but is it possible the process is intentionally complicated and not unified via tech? #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @HealthcareGuys Thanks, Shahid! We're trying to make it better for everyone! #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @acummins_health @Availity Many docs question validity of certs. They say more about money grab than patient safety. Thoughts? #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO #Blockchain, Pragmatic Interoperability & the Workflow-ization of #HealthIT https://t.co/QMopIyJxKA #AskAvaility #PragmaticInteroperability https://t.co/Sk2ZSqbNna |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba This #AskAvaility https://t.co/cTb48Nlm6S |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Not to mention multiple credentialing requests for the same health plan #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity Get ready for Topic 3 coming up in one minute! #AskAvaility https://t.co/HTUJMjBooS |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A2: The credentialers, credentialed, & credential seekers (gov't, payers, etc.) don't trust each other so hurt each other #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 RT @HealthITJames: A2 (2/2) It seems like the most of the job is translating all the disparate data sources into one format to fax in. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @HealthITJames And that is crazy.... #askavaility |
| John Weidner @johncanmarket @ExpressCred @Availity So there's things going on we can't see? #askavaility https://t.co/hhmh7MUzH9 |
| Availity @Availity T3: How can practices and plans streamline #healthcare credentialing processes right now? #AskAvaility https://t.co/SC9ZXqfkb9 |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A2: @Availity can lead the way in building an integrity network to encourage trust across participants and re-use of data #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO 1. Rationally designed workflow model 2. WF analytics 3. Trust "direction" designed/enforced into model, executed by engine #AskAvaility https://t.co/zPSxlRUJN8 |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred Accreditiation biz is lucrative, make credentialing shared and it eliminates the need. #askavaility |
| James Leatherwood @HealthITJames A2: Who makes it complicated? Plans? States? Surely the providers aren't looking for more complexity.1/2 #AskAvaility https://t.co/yvIQ1pfXq1 |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A3: Use electronic credentialing management tools but band together to demand their credential seekers use common data #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @HealthcareGuys And that does nothing but make more work for providers and that takes time away from patients! #AskAvaility |
| James Leatherwood @HealthITJames A2: 2/2 "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity" #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Health plans can start by having one uniform process and application for credentialing and re-cred #AskAvaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Necessary, but not sufficient (as is usually the case). Need some kind of workflow "governance" to drive/leverage #BlockChain #AskAvaility https://t.co/6JNZf9OSQD |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred A3: Practices- do it right the first time. Payers- consistency, support and a simple process. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred @Availity Lot of folks who make money along the way who probably would rather their piece doesn't go away #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 RT @HealthcareGuys: A2: A2: The credentialers, credentialed, & credential seekers (gov't, payers, etc.) don't trust each other so hurt each other #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Practices can start requesting that their health plans develop one uniform electronic capability for all provider types #AskAvaility |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys A3: Just like health systems use GPOs and IPAs to create purchasing leverage, do same with credentialing requirements #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @ExpressCred By all means, question this! #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ExpressCred @Availity Exactly. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 A3: First, tap the data that already exists within your organization. For large orgs this is an internal failing b4 external #askavaility |
| John Weidner @johncanmarket A3: Better streamlined processes and lines of communications #askavaility https://t.co/7QLBI7Idsw |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @HealthcareGuys Third party cred org would need multiple accreditations to make that work on a large scale #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Demanding consistency will drive efficiency (via quicker process) to lead to greater outcomes #AskAvaility https://t.co/lH165BIKet |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @Availity @HealthcareGuys And contributes to our $3+ Trillion healthcare spend... #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 RT @HealthITJames: A2: A2: 2/2 "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity" #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @HealthITJames I never assume malice in this business. And its ussually not stupidity either. Just blinders and no one checks. #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @ExpressCred Does simple = unified? #AskAvaility |
| The Healthcare Guys @HealthcareGuys You're so right @dflee30 -- extracting data from current systems and sharing with credentialers seems to missing today #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity Get ready for Topic 4 coming up in one minute! #AskAvaility https://t.co/UPCEJkmjWC |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @Availity @ExpressCred Yes, and that partly happens now, but there are still peripheral processes that are even more complex #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @ShimCode Thanks for being here, Steve! Have good meetings!! #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @dflee30 @HealthITJames And building on antiquated processes lots of times #AskAvaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Precisely why whole #infoblocking #datablocking issue is basically made up. Requires willful ("malicious") intention. Missing! #AskAvaility https://t.co/OUP9x0H6zl |
| Availity @Availity T4: How do some of the larger problems of #healthcare (lack of #interoperability, siloes, etc.) affect #credentialing? #AskAvaility https://t.co/0edgLGo1HZ |
| Don Lee @dflee30 RT @wareFLO: Precisely why whole #infoblocking #datablocking issue is basically made up. Requires willful ("malicious") intention. Missing! #AskAvaility https://t.co/OUP9x0H6zl |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Medicare, State Medicaid, and commercial LOBs all require different credentialing data from providers #AskAvaility |
| Mark Martin @HIT_MMartin RT @Availity: T4: T4: How do some of the larger problems of #healthcare (lack of #interoperability, siloes, etc.) affect #credentialing? #AskAvaility https://t.co/0edgLGo1HZ |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @CMichelleBarry Correct! But no standard process because no standard policy exists #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry The amount of paperwork to complete an initial credentialing application is overwhelming, delays the process #AskAvaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Think SW #architecture. Most Health IT is basically networked databases. Structured data. Credentials needs structured workflow #AskAvaility https://t.co/lMngKaWibY |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @CMichelleBarry How great would standardization in this area be? All entities requiring same data. #askavaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @CMichelleBarry The paperwork is the easy part, making sure the payer processes correctly is even harder. #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth @CMichelleBarry At least regionally I think that should be doable. Crossing state lines would have to be later #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @ExpressCred Let us be the change in healthcare #credentialing #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity Say it loud, say it proud! We need better #credentialing #workflow. #AskAvaility https://t.co/vRfdvCNoS1 |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO One can, indeed, "layer" workflow platforms on networked data platforms. But would have been sooo.... much better if reversed! #AskAvaility https://t.co/sKuzCU1hYF |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth @CMichelleBarry State regs not the main issue, accreditation org standards are the lynch pin #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth @CMichelleBarry Got it. And those are ussually national, correct? #askavaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @CMichelleBarry @ExpressCred We're with you 100%! We see these issues from both sides in our business. #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry In-network, participating providers are critical in patient quality outcomes; obtaining #credentialing accurately is ideal #AskAvaility |
| Antoinette Cummins @betterhlthcare @ShimCode @CMichelleBarry @HealthITJames Practice managers say their IT, & ltd. resources, require the heavy use of fax. How do we support adoption of electronic? #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @Availity #AskAvaility #HIMSSworkflow #WorkflowBear https://t.co/NXvDyOJJL1 |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ExpressCred @ShereesePubHlth @CMichelleBarry Correct, national... and expensive #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 T4: Lack of #ProviderData Management in general affects almsot everything in HC in some way. Certainly true in credentialing. #askavaility |
| John Weidner @johncanmarket A4: The answer is in the question..."lack of interoperability and silos". I smell a lack of unification in credentialing! #askavaility https://t.co/jxv5knAHMp |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @ExpressCred Once again I agree with your comment; we can work directly with #health plans to determine the appropriate processes #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ShereesePubHlth @CMichelleBarry Right. And the $ they pull from it cloud the issues and objectives. #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @acummins_health @ShimCode @CMichelleBarry @HealthITJames This is a GREAT question that #healthIT is constantly trying to answer. #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @ShereesePubHlth Oh-it would be ideal for everyone including the patients, quality outcomes while reducing medical costs and FWA #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ExpressCred @ShereesePubHlth @CMichelleBarry Yes, money that is not spent on patient care or research #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Imagine. Lay out your workflows. Then determine data needed. Could have avoided our current boil-the-data-ocean approach... #AskAvaility https://t.co/MPvw3WV0y8 |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @acummins_health @ShimCode @CMichelleBarry @HealthITJames I actually know someone who is expanding their fax servers as we speak to deal with an INCREASE IN VOLUME!!! #AskAvaility |

| Availity @Availity Get ready for Topic 5 coming up in one minute! #AskAvaility https://t.co/GGXQLZhCJf |
| Availity @Availity @wareFLO But what fun would that be? #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred @ShereesePubHlth @CMichelleBarry Or roads, schools, etc.... HC waste is a universal black hole. #AskAvaility |

| Availity @Availity T5: How can #HealthIT improve the #credentialing process? #AskAvaility https://t.co/OrkL0zuv6K |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @wareFLO Yes! Questions first! #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @dflee30 @acummins_health @ShimCode @HealthITJames No FAX :-) It costs everyone to fax #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred A5: Unified application processes, reliable and user friendly web interfaces and adequate instructions and support #askavaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 A5: HealthIT should only be applied toi good processes. IT makes bad processes much, much worse. #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry #HealthIT can offer solutions like pre-populated applications to foster efficient, effective credentialing processes #AskAvaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @dflee30 Workflow: Goal, subgoals, task(s), required resources (including data) NOT Data, Data, Data, Data, what do we do w/the data? #AskAvaility |

| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @ExpressCred We so agree; uniformity is the key to success with #crendentialing #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity Great (and vital) point! #AskAvaility https://t.co/oqZ5SM5T9Y |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 and processes should be built upon the user's perspective not the payer's #askavaility |
| Availity @Availity @dflee30 @CMichelleBarry @acummins_health @ShimCode @HealthITJames It's a dangerous job! #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @wareFLO @dflee30 #Accurate #Data please :-) #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @ExpressCred I think payers should have a say too, but it needs to work for both sides. #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry We need #HealthIT developments that allow health plans and CMS to pivot based on State and Fed regs #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @dflee30 @ExpressCred Yes, all parties need to come to the table and agree on standards/requirements that meet all needs #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @dflee30 @ExpressCred agreed, but web apps shouldn't include terminology used by payers but foreign to providers. #askavaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO And what is the best way to get accurate data? Great data collection & cleaning & quality assurance .... Workflow. #AskAvaility https://t.co/E1uaH4vVzU |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @ExpressCred @dflee30 Health Plans, MCOs, MAOs, CMS, States and CVOs should agree to the process utilized; everyone should have a voice #AskAvaility |
| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred @Availity @dflee30 @ExpressCred Would be great! Collaboration is seriously lacking and contributes to inefficiency & problems #askavaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry #HealthIT can create electronic capabilities to decrease application turn-around time and reduce admin costs #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity Get ready for Topic 6 coming up in one minute! #AskAvaility https://t.co/odOUVE1GdC |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Why folks are wrong when they think workflow comes after data. Workflow (and therefore workflow tech) is key getting gr8 data! #AskAvaility https://t.co/RgVjYDIPfI |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry In a perfect world, what should the #healthcare credentialing process look like? How do we make this a reality? #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry Realistically, #healthcare credentialing, re-cred should take <45 minutes per application, per provider #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity T6: In a perfect world, what should the #healthcare credentialing process look like? How do we make this a reality? #AskAvaility https://t.co/dOdXpeUBJW |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry HealthIT companies should produce solutions that create uniform application for credentialing, re-cred for all parties #AskAvaility |
| Availity @Availity @ExpressCred @dflee30 This is a major issue throughout #healthcare. Absolutely. #AskAvaility |
| Don Lee @dflee30 @wareFLO Yup. And easier to clan the small amount of data that you actually need rather than have to clean everything. #AskAvaility |
| Michelle Barry, BSBM, MBA @CMichelleBarry @wareFLO #Accurate #Data, not just #Data #AskAvaility |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO And the same workflow tech can be used to both management the data and then manage use of data to drive action (workflow!) #AskAvaility https://t.co/Jf00FIsBG8 |
| John Weidner @johncanmarket A6: Credentialing SHOULD be a magical world where providers are rewarded for their efforts...maybe with tacos? #askavaility https://t.co/t1AD7vLfpV |

| ExpressCredentialing @ExpressCred RT @CMichelleBarry: @wareFLO #Accurate #Data, not just #Data #AskAvaility 100% correct, credentialing is garbage in - garbage out |
