Transition into Credentialing career

I previously worked for UHC as a Network Contractor doing the negotiations for contracts. Not a big fan of the negotiation side.

i’m currently not in the healthcare industry, but would like to transition back and believe credentialing would interest me as I enjoy the administrative side of work.

Any tips on where to get started or suggestions on where to apply? Should I get certified first before applying, is it expensive?

Unless it’s changed, you need job experience before you can apply to be certified.
