Supplier Credentialing and Access
Providence has instituted a supplier credentialing program that provides security and flexibility in managing suppliers who require access to our facilities. Providence's supplier credentialing application streamlines the background check, credentialing process and the management of key information regarding the regulatory and compliance status of suppliers. Through this credentialing application, suppliers can electronically provide the information we need to:
- Manage access to our facilities and patient care areas based on background, immunization, training and compliance status
- Screen business partners, suppliers and representatives against state and federal sanction lists
- Ensure we have the most accurate contact information to communicate our unique and most current business policies
Suppliers visiting Providence facilities are required to adhere to local entry requirements and check in/out using the applicable supplier credentialing application.
- In acute care facilities, suppliers may be asked to present a printed Vendormate* ID badge in hospital facilities, at any time
- In non-acute and administrative facilities, suppliers may be asked to present a mobile badge upon arrival and at any time during the visit
- When visiting an off-site or professional office building, suppliers are required to comply with the check-in procedures established at such locations.
*Unless directed by local facilities to adhere to another credentialing process, we encourage suppliers to register on Vendormate.
