Medical staff credentialing and privileging

Credentialing Services
Legacy's System-wide Credentialing Verification Services (SCVS) personnel perform all of the primary source verification for all health care practitioners within Legacy Health.
This information is then forwarded to Medical Staff Services personnel located at each facility to complete the credentialing and privilege reviews for membership and/or privileges. Legacy's Medical Staff Services Department uses an online program to manage credentialing and privileging applications.
