Credentialing Check

Guide

Locum tenens credentialing without the last-minute scramble

Locum tenens staffing runs on speed: a physician or advanced practice clinician needs to be credentialed, privileged and scheduled — often in weeks. The credentialing file is almost always the bottleneck. Credentialing Check is built to keep that file complete and current.

Why locum credentialing is different

  • Physicians and APPs often hold licenses in many states at once
  • Every assignment means a new facility with its own requirement list
  • Short assignments leave no slack for a missing document
  • Malpractice certificates, DEA registrations and board certifications all expire on different schedules
  • Facilities won't start a locum provider with an incomplete file

What a locum-ready file contains

  • State medical or nursing licenses for every state of practice
  • DEA and controlled-substance registrations
  • Board certification and training history for physicians
  • Current malpractice insurance certificate
  • BLS/ACLS, health records, background check and references

How Credentialing Check keeps locum files ready

Add each physician or APP once and their file stays live between assignments. Every facility's requirement list is stored, so you can answer "is this physician ready to submit?" in one click. Expiration reminders go directly to the clinician at 60, 30, 14, 7, 3 and 1 days, so renewals happen between assignments — not during them.

Because locum agencies often staff nurses and allied health alongside physicians, the same workspace tracks your whole roster: MDs, DOs, NPs, PAs, CRNAs, RNs and more.

Frequently asked questions

Can Credentialing Check track licenses across multiple states?

Yes. Add each state license as its own credential with its own expiration date, and each is tracked and reminded individually.

Does it work for nurse practitioners and physician assistants on locum assignments?

Yes. NP, PA and CRNA compliance rules are built in alongside physician tracking, so mixed rosters live in one place.

How much does it cost for a locum tenens agency?

Free for up to 5 clinicians. Paid plans are $49.99/month (50 clinicians), $149.99/month (250) and $299.99/month (1,000).
