MedMonitored™ Badge Confirms Credentials and Qualifications of Physicians and Healthcare Professionals at Nation’s Hospitals, Health Plans and Facilities

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Health consumers have a new benchmark for choosing a health plan, hospital, or healthcare provider: The MedMonitored™ Badge, a healthcare professional certification monitoring program, provides recognizable quality assurance for patients, indicating the credentials of the listed providers are continuously monitored ensuring that privileges and licenses are active.

Introduced by Medversant LLC, (www.medversant.com), the nation’s provider of continuously monitored Web-based credentials verification solutions for hospitals, health insurance plans, and other health-care settings, the MedMonitored™ Badge provides evidence that provider credentials have been verified at the time of care.

Medversant and America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) have recently formed a strategic alliance to protect patients and healthcare organizations from issues that stem from providers who practice with suspended, expired, or revoked licenses.

Charles Stellar, Executive Vice President of AHIP stated,” Patients want to know that their doctors are maintaining their qualifications and can legally practice medicine. Moreover, health insurance plans need a solution that connects the status of a provider’s credentials with a claim while it is in process to certify the provider does not have suspended, expired, or revoked privileges. Our relationship with Medversant addresses these needs as a part of an overall alliance for change.”

The MedMonitored Badge is one aspect of Medversant’s leading role in moving our healthcare system beyond outdated paper-based processes and making patient safety a priority.

Matt Haddad, CEO of Medversant adds, “The MedMonitored Badge program is like having a personal advocate, certifying that the license and professional experience of each healthcare team member – including restrictions, sanctions, and license expirations – are continuously monitored using state-of-the-art technology.”

The MedMonitored Badge Certification Programs include physician certification, allied health providers, employees and vendors. “Organizations that display the badge on their Web site or provider directory will differentiate themselves as more quality focused, “ states Haddad. “The badge signals a superior level of dedication to achieving enhanced patient safety.”
