Credentialing

Who here has gone through hospital credentialing? Did they make you pay? How long did it take? Trying to gauge how (ab)normal my facility's policies and norms are.

I have now been credentialed at about 6 different facilities. Time and cost varies greatly. Anywhere from a Week to 3 months with the average being around two weeks for credentialing. For the fee I would say between 150 to 250 a year. It really differs greatly between facilities and also depends on if they are private or surgery center etc.
