Insurances

The “Insurances” module in the MedTrainer Credentialing system is designed to manage the entire insurance-network enrollment and credentialing process for providers—enabling organizations to capture and track carrier contracts, in-network status, application workflows, effective dates, and reimbursement eligibility. It’s used to ensure providers are properly sanctioned with insurance payers so services can be billed, revenue captured, and compliance maintained across payers.

FAQs

How to Set Up Insurance Payers?

To add or configure insurance payers:

Navigate to Credentialing → Settings → Insurances.
Click + Add Insurance.
Enter the payer’s details, including:
- Insurance Name (e.g., Blue Cross Blue Shield)
- Payer ID (if applicable)
- Plan Type (Commercial, Medicaid, Medicare, etc.)
- Status (Active or Inactive)
Click Save.

The insurance will now be available for selection when adding or managing provider enrollments.

Editing or Updating Insurance Information

To edit existing insurance records:

Go to Credentialing → Settings → Insurances.
Locate the insurance in your list.
Click the Edit icon.
Update details as needed — for example, payer contact information, status, or notes.
Click Save Changes.

Tip: Set a payer to Inactive rather than deleting it if it’s no longer used, to maintain data integrity in historical enrollment records.

Using Insurances in Provider Enrollments

Once insurance payers are set up, they become available in the Enrollments module when assigning or tracking payer applications for providers.

Admins and credentialing staff can select from the preconfigured list to ensure consistency and avoid data entry errors.

Notifications and Updates

If payer details change (such as updated IDs or contact info), admins should update them in Insurance Setup to ensure all active enrollments reflect the most current data.
