Business Entities in the MedTrainer Credentialing module is the foundational record representing an organization’s legal entity (e.g., tax-ID, NPI, DBA, legal business name) under which one or more locations operate. It’s used to centralize and manage key data — such as locations, lines of business and enrollment applications — providing consolidated oversight, streamlined reporting and clearer structure for organizations with multiple operating sites.
