Google Business Profile Checklist for Dentists and Physical Therapists
A section-by-section checklist for optimizing a Google Business Profile for dental and physical therapy practices in Florida, beyond just claiming the listing.
Credentialing Services
Medical credentialing services that get your providers enrolled with insurance payers and keep them enrolled. We handle CAQH, applications, follow-up, contracting and re-credentialing for physicians, therapists, dentists and other providers, so nobody is left unable to bill.
The Problem
Insurance credentialing routinely takes 60 to 180 days, and a single missing document can send an application back to the start of the queue. Meanwhile your new provider is seeing patients you cannot bill for.
Expired CAQH attestations and missed revalidation deadlines cause the same problem for established providers.
Payers return incomplete applications or simply stop responding without follow-up.
Unattested CAQH profiles block enrollment and re-credentialing.
Medicare and Medicaid revalidation deadlines missed mean payment holds.
Every week of delay is lost revenue for the practice.

FAQ
Most commercial payers take 60 to 120 days and some take up to 180 days. Medicare enrollment often takes 30 to 60 days. Complete applications and regular follow-up are what keep timelines short.
Provider credentialing is the process of verifying a provider’s education, licences, training and history and enrolling them with insurance payers so they can see covered patients and be paid in network.
Credentialing services typically cost $100 to $300 per payer application, or a monthly fee per provider for ongoing maintenance. We quote based on providers and payers.
CAQH ProView is a database most commercial payers use to collect provider information. Profiles must be kept current and re-attested every 120 days.
You can, but claims may be denied or paid out of network. Some payers allow retroactive effective dates; many do not.
