We credential physicians who have practices solely within a neighboring state. Can we accept their state’s Standard Credentialing Application in lieu of the Missouri application?
While practitioners may practice solely in a neighboring state, they could still see patients covered by Missouri HMOs, under health plans issued in MO. Missouri HMOs and their credentialing agents are legally obligated to comply with MO’s standardized credentialing form, regardless of the location of the provider.
