Received the following approval confirmation from Chuck: "Hi, Brad!  Cred status; affil date  Melody L'Etoile (1942687108---App rcvd; 12/10/20 Carlee Rozell (1225645393).---App rcvd; 2/11/20  Oh, sorry about that. The dates are just the dates my system shows the providers attached to the tax ID. It doesn’t really mean anything much to us; has nothing to do with claims, but I find that providers set great store by it. :-)  As soon as we have them hooked up, they can see patients, or even before, really. Our timely filing guideline is a year after the date of service, even if the provider wasn’t Tricare-certified ON that DOS. We’re still waiting on these cred apps to process; those usually take about three months.
