CREDENTIALING REQUIREMENTS CHECKLIST
For Full-time /Part-time Physicians
Enclosed is information explaining how to do a self-query on the National Practitioner Data Bank/HIPDB. Please complete the self-query on line at www.npdb-hipdb.hrsa.gov
Once you receive your self-query back, please mail all reports to me in the enclosed envelope. Please note: the reports look very similar except that one will say NPDB in the middle of the page and the other one will say HIPDB.
NPDB and HIPDB each charge $8, for a total cost of $16. You will be reimbursed for these fees after your 1st shift worked at the hospital. Please make sure to submit both queries to our office. If you have any questions, please free to contact me at 800-507-8874 ext 2518.
Thank you for your prompt response to this request.
Sincerely,
Jen LeCoche
Credentialing Coordinator
