Welcome to the Medical Staff Internet Reference Guide. I am a CPCS who has been credentialing since 1991. I have worked in CVO's, managed care organizations, and several acute care hospitals in the Southern California area. This page started out as a simple reference list for me, to more efficiently organize those little pieces of notepaper in three-ring binders that credentialers seem to collect. It has grown from there.
I am continually updating this source, and trying to make it the most comprehensive list of information available.
Please be aware that I have no connection in any way with any of the organizations linked on my page. Also, this webpage is just what the title states; I do not attempt to verify whether or not the sites are considered primary source by Joint Commission or NCQA standards - that is up to the individual credentialer to ascertain. Though, if I do know it is not considered primary source, I will make a note indicating so.
If you wish to have a link added or you have an update on an already existing link, please
contact me.
Thank you!
Jennifer

My apologies to anyone using Firefox. Through Microsoft Office Live, I was able to get free webhosting. But, I am required to use their software, which is only friendly with Internet Explorer. I have not tried viewing any of these pages with Netscape, so I do not know how well they work. If you are using Firefox, the pages are viewable, just not very pretty.
