Credentialing
The Solis Health Plans Credentialing Program strives to ensure that the Solis Health Plans’ network consists of quality Practitioners/Ancillary/Facilities who meet clearly defined criteria and standards. It is the objective of Solis Health Plans to provide superior health care to the community. The decision to accept or deny a credentialing applicant is based upon primary source verification, recommendation of peer practitioners/providers and additional information, as required. The information gathered is confidential and disclosure is limited to parties who are legally permitted to have access to the information under state and federal law. The Credentialing Program has been developed in accordance with state and federal requirements and accreditation guidelines. In accordance with those standards, Solis Health Plans members will not be referred and/or assigned to you until the credentialing process has been completed.
Criteria for Participation
Solis Health Plans will work with you to verify your qualifications, practice history, certifications, and registration to practice in the health care field. Solis Health Plans has established criteria and resources used to verify these criteria for the evaluation and selection of practitioners for participation. Solis’ policy defines the criteria that is applied to applicants for initial, recredentialing, and ongoing participation in the Solis network.
Solis Health Plans reserves the right of discretion in applying any criteria and excludes practitioners who do not meet the criteria. Solis may, after considering the recommendations of the Credentialing Committee, waive any of the requirements for network participation established pursuant to these policies for good cause if it is determined that such waiver is necessary to meet the needs of Solis Health Plans and the community it serves.
The refusal of Solis Health Plans to waive any requirement shall not entitle any practitioner to a hearing, appeal, or any other rights of review.

Solis uses CAQH ProView Application as the required application for providers, and the Solis application for facilities. All applications must be attested within 120 days for the application to be accepted.
Non-Discriminatory Credentialing and Recredentialing
Solis does not make credentialing and recredentialing decisions based on an applicant’s race, ethnic/national identity, gender, age, sexual orientation or the types of procedures (e.g. abortions) or patients (e.g. Medicaid or Medicare) in which the practitioner specializes.
Notification of Discrepancies in Credentialing Information
Solis will notify the practitioner immediately in writing in the event that credentialing information obtained from other sources varies substantially from that provided by the practitioner. Examples include but are not limited to actions on a license, malpractice claims history or board certification decisions. Solis is not required to reveal the source of information if the information is not obtained to meet organization credentialing verification requirements or if disclosure is prohibited by law.
Practitioners Right to Correct Erroneous Information
Practitioners have the right to correct erroneous information in their credentials file. Practitioners are notified of their right in a letter sent to them at the time the initial or recredentialing application is received.

Examples include but are not limited to actions on a license or malpractice claims history.

The notification sent to the practitioner will detail the information in question and will include instructions to the practitioner indicating:

Upon receipt of notification from the practitioner Solis Health Plans will document receipt of the information in the practitioner’s credentials file. Solis will then re-verify the primary source information in dispute. If the primary source information has changed, correction will be made immediately to the practitioner’s credentials file. The practitioner will be notified in writing that the correction has been made to their credentials file. If the primary source information remains inconsistent with practitioners’ notification, the Credentialing Department will notify the practitioner. The practitioner may then provide proof of correction by the primary source body to Solis’s Credentialing Department. The Credentialing Department will re-verify primary source information if such documentation is provided.
If the practitioner does not respond within 10 calendar days, their application processing will be discontinued, and network participation will be denied.
Practitioners Right to be Informed of Application Status
Practitioners have a right, upon request, to be informed of the status of their application. Practitioners applying for initial participation are sent a Practitioner Rights letter when their application is received by Solis Health Plans and are notified of their right to be informed of the status of their application in this letter. The practitioner can request to be informed of the status of their application by telephone, email, or mail. Solis may share with the practitioner where the application is in the credentialing process to include any missing information or information not yet verified. Solis Credentialing does not share with or allow a practitioner to review references or recommendations, or other information that is peer-review protected.
Medicare Risk Adjustment
Risk adjustment allows CMS to pay plans for the risk of the beneficiaries they enroll in, instead of an average amount for Medicare beneficiaries. By risk adjusting plan payments, CMS is able to make appropriate and accurate payments for enrollees with differences in expected costs.
