Different Perspectives
Not all users of the dashboard are looking for
the same type of information. Some may be
interested in looking for payer-specific details,
while others are more focused on working on tasks
related to individual providers. The dashboard
needs to accommodate these perspectives in its
display to improve staff efficiency and improved
workflow. For example
Display provider-specific information, such as
number of providers being credentialed and the
status of specific tasks within the process, as
well as the wealth of information imported from
the Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare
(CAQH).
Display payer-related information, such as payer
contact details, insurance PDF forms specific to
the payer, web links, counts of providers with
insurance and their credentialing status.

Its important for dashboards to be user friendly
and include features that make it easier for the
staff to complete their jobs. Leading credentiali
ng solutions include advanced features such as
the ability to easily attach documents to records
within screens, and capabilities to upload
information from other data sources (e.g., CAQH
and others). These capabilities reduce data
entry, and make documents easier to find. With
dashboards, everyone remains on the same page and
is up-to-date with the status of tasks, which
increases the efficiency and effectiveness of the
credentialing process.
