Credentialing is the process of assessing and confirming the license or certification, education,
training, and other qualifications or a licensed or certified healthcare practitioner.

Privileging is the process of authorizing a health care practitioner’s specific scope and content
of patient care services.

A proper structured credentialing and privileging process can prevent the admission of rogue
healthcare workers with dubious qualifications, which also helps ensure a better quality of
patient care.
