Learn MoreSanford Health is a large health system dedicated to the integrated delivery of health care, genomic medicine, senior care and services, global clinics, research and affordable insurance. They chose CredentialStream for its breadth of functionality, data integrity, flexible reporting features, and high level of security.
Sanford Health is dedicated to the integrated delivery of health care, genomic medicine, senior care and services, global clinics, research and affordable insurance. When the organization learned that their credentialing software was being sunsetted, they didn’t stress. Sanford Health knew it was a great opportunity to rethink their practices and needs as a growing enterprise.
Manage a growing enterprise:
When Sanford Health selected their original credentialing software, they were a single
facility. Today they have operations spread across 5 different states. The organization
needed a solution that would enable them to standardize their processes across the
network and enable their providers to move seamlessly from region to region servicing
patients.
Offer an affordable health plan:
Sanford Health has joined the increasing number of health systems that provides affordable
health insurance to health plan members. This shift meant they needed a solution that
could help them develop and manage their own physician network and payer credentialing
process.
Put an end to time consuming work arounds:
Sanford Health’s former credentialing software didn’t have the comprehensive functionality
or automation required to cover the complete provider lifecycle. They often had to design
time consuming workarounds to fill the gaps.
"The automation is really encouraging. We are
especially excited about the reporting capabilities.
We no longer have to build Excel spreadsheets
and manually filter things out or change things. We
leverage the out-of-the-box reports."
Mel Bolkema, Sanford’s Senior Director of Professional
Practice, Sanford Health
Sanford Health fully vetted three solutions. They chose CredentialStream for its:
Breadth of functionality:
Previously Sanford Health used multiple systems to manage
credentialing, enrollment, privileging, and evaluation functions. With CredentialStream they can
manage all these tasks with a single solution.
Data integrity:
CredentialStream’s continuously updated, comprehensive, and standardized
database of U.S. physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, allied health
professionals, and registered nurses assures data accuracy.
Flexible reporting features:
CredentialStream’s sophisticated engine and reporting tool, Bolt,
comes with out-of-the box reports to simplify and automate reporting.
Security:
The ability to deliver tiered access ensures everyone has the information they need
and nothing more.
The Sanford team included IT, those responsible for enrollment, credentialing, and health plan administration. Sanford also took a phased approach to their go-live versus launching everything at once, which eased the transition between their previous software and CredentialStream.
"We assembled a team to partner with
VerityStream to configure CredentialStream’s
out-of-the box content and workflows to ensure
its optimized for all of our stakeholders."
Mel Bolkema, Sanford’s Senior Director of Professional
Practice
Increased Revenue
By eliminating manual processes and spreadsheets from the enrollment process, Sanford
Health can enroll providers with payers faster. They expect to write off a lot less bills going
forward.
Standardized Privileges
Sanford Health was able to fully standardize their privileges with CredentialStream’s library of
best-practice privilege forms. Providers can now request and track privileges granted online via
one source.
Improved Patient & Provider Experiences
Now that providers can complete applications and request privileges online, they can spend
more time with patients and less time on paperwork.
"An improved provider experience has been
one of the top benefits we have noticed since
making the switch to CredentialStream. Providers
have expressed that having a one-stop-shop for
credentialing makes their lives easier."
Mel Bolkema, Sanford’s Senior Director of Professional
Practice, Sanford Health
Sanford Health is dedicated to the work of health, healing, and comfort. The flexibility provided by CredentialStream will allow them to continue to expand their network of care. To support their growth, they will continue to adapt CredentialStream’s functionality. Next up, they plan to:
"Sanford Health is dedicated to the work of
health and healing. The Medical Staff Office
is the first line of defense when it comes
to patient care. It’s our job to make sure
that we are credentialing and privileging
qualified providers to care for our patients.
CredentialStream helps us do that."
Mel Bolkema, Sanford’s Senior Director of Professional
Practice, Sanford Health
