Compare CredentialCal vs. Sokndall

CredentialCal is an online application designed to assist small surgical practices in managing and tracking credentials efficiently. It offers office managers and credentialing staff a unified interface to oversee essential documents such as provider licenses, DEA registrations, board certifications, and ongoing education requirements, as well as CAQH attestations and payer enrollments. Additionally, users can import current records from Excel or CSV files, categorize items by provider, payer, and facility, and stay informed on upcoming deadlines through a calendar view that highlights compliance status. The system proactively sends configurable alerts via in-app notifications and emails to ensure that users are reminded well ahead of critical deadlines. Furthermore, renewal checklists are provided to streamline the process, including forms, links to portals, necessary documents, and detailed workflow notes. While the software effectively organizes and tracks tasks, it is ultimately the responsibility of the staff to verify requirements and complete necessary applications, attestations, and renewals on time, ensuring that the practice remains compliant with all regulations. This blend of organization and accountability helps to enhance the overall efficiency of operations within the surgical practice.

Sokndall functions as a comprehensive tracker for credentialing and payer enrollment, specifically designed for small practices, individual clinicians, and billing firms. It consolidates all necessary credentials for each provider, including their expiration dates, in one easily accessible location, covering aspects such as state licenses, DEA registrations, controlled substance registrations, malpractice insurance, board certifications, CAQH re-attestation every four months, and Medicare and Medicaid revalidations. Additionally, it monitors the status and follow-up history of every enrollment application submitted to various payers. Users receive a weekly summary and expiration notifications via email to ensure that nothing lapses. Importantly, Sokndall does not save patient information (no PHI), does not connect with CAQH or payer portals, and does not perform primary source verification. Its pricing model is transparent and designed for self-service, eliminating the need for sales calls: Solo plans are available for $79 per month (covering up to three providers), Practice plans for $299 monthly (up to 15 providers), and Billing Company plans for $699 a month (accommodating up to 50 providers across different tax IDs). A 14-day trial is offered, allowing users to cancel directly within the app if desired. With its user-friendly approach, Sokndall simplifies the complex processes of credentialing and payer enrollment for its users.
