About This Webinar

The updated standards for credentialing processes among payers released by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) are in effect as of July 1, 2025. The new standards raise the bar for credentialing processes, calling for decreased verification windows and increased monitoring in case of adverse actions, among other changes. The updates reflect NCQA’s commitment to patient safety, upholding high standards for oversight of credential eligibility throughout the entire provider lifecycle. Meeting these elevated standards poses a challenge for most payers, who have operated under much looser guidelines for years.

Though the 2025 NCQA credentialing guideline updates are much-needed, they’re not easy to understand. NCQA doesn’t provide guidance on how to implement these changes, leaving many payers unsure of how to actually meet the new guidelines.

In this webinar, we’ll will unpack the key areas where credentialing processes will need to change, offering digestible explanations and concrete ways to meet the new guidelines. After we diving deeper into the guidelines, we’ll wrap up with a high-level view of DynamicNPI, our data-forward solution designed to help payers easily meet and exceed the NCQA guidelines while improving the quality of their provider data.
