The Community Behavioral Health (CBH) system of delegated credentialing offers Providers the opportunity to establish and maintain their own credentialing process while meeting the standards established by CBH. Through the delegated credentialing process, the Provider will follow the guidelines necessary to ensure quality of care as determined by CBH.
Providers will be responsible for adherence to standards described within the Credentialing Manual. The process of delegated credentialing holds each Provider responsible for:
Establishing a method of credentialing
for all direct
care and supervisory staff.
Developing and maintaining standards
of clinical
practice, both discipline and Provider specific.
Identifying methods of assessing quality
of care
through written standards.
Determining outcome standards that measure
aspects of care based on the results of treatment
which includes consumer satisfaction.
