UTROP Credentialing Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 7/31/2025 "Update: Since my last review" 3/5 What do you like best about CredentialStream? I actually do like the application's list of functions available! CS can be your favorite credentialing tool with proper configurations! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CredentialStream? Undoubtedly the server issues are a pain! We have these rather frequently at times, it's been about 3 times within the last quarter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CredentialStream solving and how is that benefiting you? It solves the problem of PSV for us, whereas we used to contract out for this at a high cost. It places control over the entire process of credentialing right into our hands. We have the ability to see what has or has not been received, we have control over edits when the provider has made a mistake in entering contact for verifications, and we can see all flags the moment one registers. This is big in this business, and credentialing timing for us has decreased by about 25 days with the installation of CS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UTROP Payor Credentialing & Enrollment Specialist Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 4/1/2025 "Great application, fundamentally sound as long as it's working" 2.5/5 What do you like best about CredentialStream? I truly appreciate the functionality of the system, particularly how seamlessly it enhances our productivity when everything is working correctly. One of the most significant advancements is our ability to manage PSV independently, which greatly streamlines the credentialing process. Rather than having to manually upload documents into the system, we can now handle verifications directly through the application. This improvement not only saves time but also reduces the potential for errors. Additionally, the capability to customize the application to meet our specific requirements has proven to be immensely beneficial, allowing us to optimize our workflows and better serve our needs. Overall, these features contribute to a more efficient and effective credentialing experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CredentialStream? Having used this application for over a year now, I have consistently faced various challenges that hinder our productivity. The frequent runtime errors, outages, and sluggish performance are particularly frustrating, as they disrupt our workflow and delay important tasks. One major issue is that the workflows do not automatically update as we progress through different stages of our processes. This lack of real-time updates often results in duplicate efforts, forcing us to spend extra time re-entering information or reconciling discrepancies. Furthermore, I believe that the addition of a built-in messaging system would greatly enhance communication within our team. If we could set alerts and send messages to one another directly through the application, it would streamline collaboration and help us respond to issues more quickly. Finally, it would be incredibly beneficial to have the capability to open support tickets within the application itself. Currently, the process requires us to either call support or navigate to a separate online portal, which can be time-consuming. Having a direct ticketing feature integrated into the application would not only save time but also allow us to track our issues more effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CredentialStream solving and how is that benefiting you? It mainly brings primary source verifications in-house for us, allowing us to manage the entire aspect of credentialing, which is a financial savings for our Company.

The number of features within the application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CredentialStream? Running Reports is difficult and a lot of fields you need to fill in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CredentialStream solving and how is that benefiting you? The company implemented CredentialStream before I was hired so after being here for 6 months I am finally getting the training to know the system. It is very helpful with the training, I had taught myself some of it but it is making it more efficient with the training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although I have not used Credential Stream to its full extent, the overall experience has been good. I do look forward to when we’re able to set up reminders on expirables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CredentialStream? The system often runs a bit slow, and having the ellipsis on certain fields I feel is unnecessary. Also, requesting degrees or titles can be frustrating due to the response not indicating who the request is for. Which I thought was kind of strange, not having the provider’s name automatically built into the request. This can be quite time consuming if you did not keep record of who the request was for.

All of the providers information is contained in one spot and it readily available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CredentialStream? We experience changes to our data, the configuration of our set-up which causes us to have to go back and re-configure and try to figure out what changed and why. This happens at least once every week or two. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CredentialStream solving and how is that benefiting you? We have been going thru training after a period of non-use and configuration building that really wasn't good. CredentialStream is training us on the use of the software and we are hoping they can assist with getting Appoint up and running with us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that we will eventually be able to do our credentialing in house so we will have more control over verifying Provider information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am hopeful that once I begin doing the group trainings that I will have a better grasp of the system and how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CredentialStream solving and how is that benefiting you? The CredentialStream will make it so we can complete credentialing in house which will stream line the process for our health center and will make the process faster and more accurate.

Set up takes a very long time ." 3/5 What do you like best about CredentialStream? Electronic forms for providers and the workflows Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about CredentialStream? It seems like it can be difficult to set things up the way we want them. We will have an idea, but then there is some limitation or reason that it won't work like we intend and we will have to find a workaround. Troubleshooting and testing take a lot of time and we often end up with a less than desirable result due to the compromises we have to make. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is CredentialStream solving and how is that benefiting you? Using workflows is helping us to not miss important steps and is extremely valuable to new employees. It has also made our turn around times faster since we are able to have providers fill out forms electronically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
