MO HB2450

Establishes the "Prompt Credentialing Act" requiring health carriers to credential physicians using a uniform format that includes commonly requested credentialing information.

Mandates health carriers complete the credentialing verification process and make a final determination within 45 calendar days of receiving a completed application.

Requires health carriers to grant physicians provisional credentialing status if a final determination is not made within the 45-day timeframe.

Mandates health carriers retroactively compensate physicians for services rendered from the date of their credentialing application once they become credentialed.
