Process once credentialing is kicked off:
If provider plans to see exams out of their own personal office, we will need detailed photos of the office and signed OSHA form to approve their office. More details can be provided during credentialing on exact photos needed.
After credentialing is confirmed as complete, the provider will need to complete their DMA training. DMA’s will be only be assigned to them once credentialing is complete. After DMA’s are confirmed as complete, the provider is marked as “active” in the VES system. At this point, they are able to provide their availability for scheduling. Before working their first shift, they will need to complete a 2-hour PEP session/training. Availability for this will need to be provided along with shift availability.
The “Pep Session” is one-on-one, via Zoom or Microsoft Teams , and done with a Report Analyst that will pair up with you as a New Provider Liaison. They will help you learn how to navigate the online secure web portal, give advice and tips on completing DBQs and reviewing medical records, and they will prepare you directly for your first Veteran cases. The “Pep Session” lasts about 2-3 hours and is scheduled a few days before your first Veteran cases. This New Provider Liaison will be someone that helps you get to a point where your scheduling restriction of 5-10 Veterans every two weeks can be lifted. This takes most providers between 1-3 months and sometimes up to 6 months.
Once established, if the provider is willing and there is a need, VES may ask for them to travel to other areas to assist with cases. In these cases, travel expenses will be reimbursed per VES guidelines.
