Healthcare & Credentialing Services

The MedCheck Complete Search includes the best practices that are recommended for compliance by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Offices of Inspector General (OIG), and more. It covers all data sets included in the MedCheck, MedCheck Plus, and MedCheck Pro searches, adding board action data for medical doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other licensed medical professionals.

The MedCheck Pro Search delivers the same level of information found in the MedCheck Exclusion Search and additionally includes state Medicaid exclusion data on both individuals and organizations. This search provides the Medicaid exclusion information required for state compliance. The MedCheck Plus Search provides compliance for both the federal and state levels.

The MedCheck License Check confirms that an individual provider’s license to practice in a professional capacity is both current and active. The license verification is performed by confirming directly with the licensing or governing body that is responsible for regulating the license. This check is performed live when the request is made.
