CAQH is a consortium of health associations that aim to streamline the credentialing process. Here's how it works. Providers (you) fill out one application online, and submit them to as many insurance panels as needed.
The tricky part? You have to first be given a CAQH ID, by an insurance company. I chose Humana, and was able to get a CAQH ID in 2 days. Look around, I believe Blue Cross also provides these ID's in a short amount of time. Once you've recieved a CAQH ID, you'll be able to log on and fill out everything about yourself, where you practice, etc.
You'll have to fax all of your supporting documents (DEA, Malpractice, etc) for them to review it. Presto! You're done.
