Credential checks you can file, not screenshots you have to trust
One
healthcare_screen claim runs the state board license check, the NPI identity check and every federal and state exclusion list. Each result carries the board's own record, the time we checked and a rendered proof PDF for the survey binder.What runs
One claim, three checks, one price
License at the state board
Status, expiration, multistate privilege, disciplinary actions and the order documents, read live from the board's own system.
Learn more
NPI identity
The NPPES record: name, taxonomy, enumeration date, practice location. Licenses listed in NPPES corroborate but never decide.
Learn more
OIG, SAM, OFAC, FDA, Medicare opt-out
Every federal list, refreshed daily or weekly. A stale list is reported as stale, never as clear.
Learn more
State Medicaid exclusion lists
Every state list we can load, with its own as-of date; lists we cannot load are reported as not checked.
Learn more
Monitoring
Re-check every license on the board's cadence and every exclusion list on refresh; a webhook on any change.
Learn more
Hosted consent
A standalone disclosure and authorization page per candidate, with state add-ons, so FCRA consent is never missed.

Collect consent
