Credentialing Program<br />
<strong>Fidelis</strong> has a comprehensive written credentialing program that has been established in<br />
accordance with the standards <strong>of</strong> the National Committee for Quality Assurance<br />
(NCQA) and applicable state and federal regulatory requirements. The program is<br />
reviewed and revised at least annually.<br />
All providers who fall under the scope <strong>of</strong> <strong>Fidelis</strong> Credentialing Program must meet the<br />
minimum credentials, qualifications and criteria established by the Plan. The <strong>Fidelis</strong><br />
Credentialing Committee makes all decisions regarding provider participation in the<br />
<strong>Fidelis</strong> network in accordance with <strong>Fidelis</strong> credentialing criteria.<br />
Getting Credentialed with <strong>Fidelis</strong> <strong>SecureCare</strong><br />
Once you have completed the <strong>Fidelis</strong> <strong>Provider</strong> Information Form and executed the Network<br />
<strong>Provider</strong> Collaboration Agreement, you may become credentialed with <strong>Fidelis</strong> in one <strong>of</strong> two<br />

a. <strong>Fidelis</strong>SC is a registered organization <strong>of</strong> CAQH, a national credentialing<br />
clearinghouse. Once you have provided your credentials to CAQH, they<br />
will assign you a CAQH provider ID and also facilitate the credentialing<br />
process with all <strong>of</strong> the payors / networks with which you wish to become<br />
affiliated. Simply provide us your CAQH provider ID number and we will<br />
access your application and begin our credentialing process.<br />
2. If you prefer not to sign up with CAQH, then you must complete the<br />
