If UnitedHealthcare is not accepting new applications for participation in our network for your specialty or geographic area, UnitedHealthcare will notify you and close your request. Credentialing is required for all licensed individual health care professionals to participate in the UnitedHealthcare networks and prior to seeing UnitedHealthcare members. This should be done no more than 30 days before your effective date at your practice. UnitedHealthcare will review your request and let you know if we need any additional information. If you have questions about your credentialing status, please use your One Healthcare ID to sign in and chat with a live representative. Don’t have a One Healthcare ID? Register now. |
UnitedHealthcare automatically starts the process when you approach the 3-year credentialing cycle. If you maintain a complete and current data attestation every 120 days, there's nothing more you need to do.
