Are providers required to keep documentation of clinical license, as well as, transcripts and diplomas to document professional status of clinical providers?
Providers must follow their own policies for credentialing staff and must maintain any documentation attached to the employment application in each individuals personnel file. For clinical staff required to obtain and maintain a license or certification to practice, licensure/certification is dependent on the submission of transcripts to the licensing or certification entity. Consequently, licensure/certification will be accepted by DIDS as proof that educational requirements have been met and should be kept on file. Behavior Analysts and Specialists are not required to obtain licensure in Tennessee; however, credentials/qualifications are verified during the provider approval process. For such behavior providers, the DIDS letter of approval to participate as a DIDS-approved provider must be kept on file as proof that educational requirements have been met.
