amykpac10 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I am a recent grad and accepted my first job as a hospitalist PA. I am told I need to come in for a "credentialing interview" a couple weeks before my start date. Does anyone know what this entails? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UGoLong Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I had one of those. In my case, it was a welcoming thing from the Chief of Medicine and a review of their rules, use of the lounge, where to park, etc. Nothing to worry about I should think.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthropathy Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I had one it was silly. 5 minutes to review my application and answer questions I had already answered on my app regarding work/licensing/priveledges. Complete waste of everyone's time If you've made it far enough to the credentialing committee you have nothing to worry about, the rest is formalities.

SHU-CH Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I had one years ago. I was ushered into a board room with a long oak table with one chair on my side and about 10 people seated on the other side. They asked fairly pointed questions about what I was qualified to do (I was only the second PA in the hospital). Most likely, it will be a tame affair, but be ready for anything.

mmiller3 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 As everyone else has stated, these interviews are pretty common. They are typically just a formality, but a good way to get to know some of the decision-makers at your facility as well. All of mine have lasted about 10 minutes on average, and none of the questions they asked were unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
