Guest speaker, Anthony Begando, CEO of Professional Credentials Exchange, LLC, partnering with Hashed Health of Nashville, TN launched the Professional Credentials Exchange. The Exchange intends to provide the market with a blockchain solution to address the effort, cost, redundancy, and complexity of obtaining and verifying practitioner identity and credentialing information.
Credentialing is a mandated process that intends to ensure the clinical competency of a healthcare practitioner. All organizations that provide, compensate, or support healthcare delivery must credential practitioners prior to their employment or contracting. The process often takes several months to complete and is largely impeded by a lack of reliable, verified information available to those performing this work. Delays in physician credentialing within hospitals alone result in forfeitures of net revenue averaging an estimated $7,500 per day. The Exchange will allow practitioners and those parties requiring credentials information to access and acquire this data with greater efficiency and confidence in its sourcing and accuracy.
