This accelerated processing not only minimizes costs but also enables credentialed providers to commence patient care and billing sooner. On average, this translates to an astounding $47,196 in newfound billing opportunities for each provider credentialed through a CVO.
Our ultimate aim is to empower medical providers to efficiently serve a greater number of patients while optimizing revenue generation. 5ACVO represents the intelligent solution for reducing your credentialing processing time, thereby extending the window for billing and revenue generation.
