How to Get On Insurance Panels as A Psychologist Blacktown


Getting on an insurance panel as a preferred provider, opens up your practice to patients and clients who wish to pay for your services with insurance. However, getting credentialed, as the process is known, can be tricky. Applications can run to dozens of pages and some hopefuls spend hours chasing lost applications, fighting enrollment rejections or sitting on hold with an insurance company that's not accepting panel members at the time. Figuring out what you can offer the insurance company, and not merely the patients, may make the process easier.



1.    Visit the Council website. This online service allows Psychologist Blacktown and other healthcare providers to file their credentials and complete one application that most major insurance companies use in conjunction with their own procedures.

2.    Call the insurance company you are interested in and ask to speak with Provider Relations. Ask the employee to talk you through the application process make sure you understand what information you need to supply and when. Ask about the insurance company's unique clinical needs -- you stand a better chance of being appointed if you specifically address those needs. Request an application.

3.    Check the insurance company's pay rates and if accepted onto the panel, you must accept the insurer's contracted hourly rates for Psychologist Castle Hill

4.    Complete your application and focus on the benefits you can offer the insurance company, such as increasing efficiency and reducing costs. Include details of any languages you speak and any experience you have working with special groups such as children or deaf clients.

5.    Send your application per the contact details on the form. Do this as soon as    possible. Provider Relations typically reject an applicant who does not submit their application or deal with queries in a timely manner.

Warning: Check the requirements carefully. Some insurance companies only accept licensed psychologists with two or more years' experience under their belts.
