Please return all applications to:

Medical Staff Services & System Credentialing

Office: (404) 778-5034

PLEASE NOTE:

  • Keep a copy of your original application, either saved on your computer or a hard copy for future use.
  • Maintain the form(s) by updating with new information as needed.
  • Every time you are credentialed, the Hospital, Health Plan and/or other Healthcare Entity(ies) will require your signature and date on a new "Authorization and Signature" page. This form allows the plan or hospital to verify the information you've included on your application by confirming it from primary sources. It also contains an attestation stating that the information on your application is current and true to the best of your knowledge.
  • Please review each copy of the application form prior to submitting to ensure that all sections are complete (incomplete forms will not be accepted!). Remember, in order for your application to be considered complete, you must submit Part One & Part Two simultaneously.
  • All questions should be answered 'yes' or 'no' even if they do not apply.  Any unanswered question will only delay your application process.
  • If you are going to provide services at Emory Medical Care Foundation (EMCF), you must apply for privileges at Grady Hospital. Grady Hospital handles their own credentialing of providers and this does not fall under the Emory Healthcare umbrella.
  • Applicants should apply for their Georgia License, DEA and National Provider Identifier (NPI) numbers prior to completing and returning their application. The process for obtaining a Georgia License and/or DEA numbers can be lengthy. It will lessen the time your application spends in credentialing if you have obtained these numbers in advance.
