For all healthcare providers looking for insurance credentialing services in Miami-Dade County, it is imperative to know that the three major differences between medical and dental insurance credentialing are:

    Medical insurance credentialing typically applies to a wider range of healthcare providers such as doctors, specialists, nurses, and therapists, whereas dental insurance credentialing is more oriented towards dentists and dental specialists, such as oral surgeons or orthodontists.

    We understand that different healthcare providers have to meet different credentialing requirements when applying to be a part of an insurance network. Medical credentialing requires a broader review of certifications, hospital privileges, and specializations, while dental practices seeking insurance credentialing would require more focus on dental-specific licenses, education, and expertise in dental procedures.
