STATE OF ILLINOIS

Uniform Health Care and Hospital Recredentials Form

The Health Care Professional Credentials Data Collection Act [410 ILCS 517] requires that this form be collected from health care professionals by hospitals, health care entities, and health care plans that desire to recredential such professional. Each hospital, health care entity, and health care plan may also require completion of supplemental forms.

INSTRUCTIONS

This form is for recredentialing only. Other forms are required for credentialing and for updating information. YOU ONLY HAVE TO FILL OUT AND SUBMIT WHAT IS REQUESTED BY THE CREDENTIALING ENTITY. PLEASE REFER TO THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED TO YOU BY THE ORGANIZATION YOU ARE APPLYING TO FOR THEIR REQUIREMENTS.

This form has been segmented into 2 different Chapters, each containing various sections:

Chapter A: General and Practice Information

Chapter B: Business Information

As previously noted, please consult the specific credentialing entity instructions for their individual Chapter or section requirements for submission.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS: Wherever this application requests information but does not provide sufficient space to provide a complete response (for example, you have more licenses, specialties, work history, etc.) provide attachments that contain all of the information requested in the relevant section OR duplicate the relevant section as many times as necessary and attach it to the back of this application.

Any credentials data collected or obtained by the health care entity, health care plan, or hospital shall be confidential, as provided by law, and otherwise may not be redisclosed without written consent of the health care professional, except that in any proceeding to challenge credentialing or recredentialing, or in any judicial review, the claim of confidentiality shall not be invoked to deny a health care professional, health care entity, health care plan, or hospital access to or use of credentials data. Nothing in this subsection prevents a health care entity, health care plan, or hospital from disclosing any credentials data to its officers, directors, employees, agents, subcontractors, medical staff members, any committee of the health care entity, health care plan, or hospital involved in the credentialing process, or accreditation bodies or licensing agencies. However, any redisclosure of credentials data contrary to this subsection is prohibited. (Section 15(h) of the Act)
