APP Credentialing Support in Florida
Physician-related credentialing support for nurse practitioners (NPs/APRNs) and physician assistants (PAs) applying to Medicaid or commercial insurers, with a clear agreement for this stage of your practice.
Physician support for credentialing, with a clearly limited role.
- Review of the payer’s requested physician role and supporting documents before acceptance.
- One $500 monthly fee for the APP’s credentialing support across Medicaid, Medicaid managed care, and commercial plans—not a separate fee per plan.
- A credentialing agreement that does not establish MFMD clinical supervision of your patients.
- A separate written agreement before any transition to medical directorship or clinical collaboration.
Scope and pricing reflect MFMD’s service model. Acceptance depends on reviewing the payer’s written requirements.
01Before we beginWe first review what the payer is asking for
We first review what the payer is asking for
Share the application, forms, and the payer’s description of the requested physician role. We confirm which support can be included in the credentialing agreement. If a document requires clinical supervision or patient coverage, that obligation requires assessment for a clinical agreement; it cannot be signed as credentialing-only support.
02During the processOne monthly fee across all plans
One monthly fee across all plans
The fee is $500 per month per APP, not per insurer. It covers only the physician participation and physician documents accepted in writing for credentialing. MFMD does not process applications or manage payer follow-up. It does not include facility medical directorship, clinical collaboration or supervision, patient coverage, or permission to bill patient services under the physician’s NPI. Each payer controls its approval and timing; neither is guaranteed.
03Duration and clinical workYou choose whether to continue support
You choose whether to continue support
The service continues month to month while the agreement remains active; payer delays do not create an automatic maximum term. The fee continues while MFMD maintains the agreed support. You may terminate with 30 days’ written notice under the agreement. Working for another practice, including through telemedicine, does not prevent you from retaining support for pending applications; that work remains outside MFMD supervision. Any clinical collaboration or supervision needed to satisfy applicable requirements must be established in a separate written agreement before those duties begin. You are not required to purchase future MFMD clinical services.
Before credentialing support begins.
The agreement depends on the payer’s documents and the requested physician role.
Does MFMD submit my payer applications?
No. You or your credentialing team prepare, submit, and follow up on applications. MFMD provides only the physician participation and documents within the accepted scope.
Do I pay $500 for each plan?
No. It is one $500 monthly fee per APP across all plans within the agreed credentialing scope.
Is credentialing support a collaborating physician agreement?
No. Credentialing support is limited to the agreed physician participation and documentation; it does not establish clinical collaboration, supervision, or patient backup coverage. If you later need collaboration or supervision for patient care, a separate clinical agreement is assessed. Autonomous NPs practicing within their authorized autonomous scope do not need that agreement.
Should I be included in the estimator’s APP count?
Not if you only need credentialing support. That count is for APPs requiring MFMD clinical collaboration or supervision at the facility.
Does this fee include future clinical duties?
No. Medical directorship and clinical collaboration or supervision have their own agreement and fee based on the accepted scope.
