Credentialing / Verification
Request Credentials/Verfication for Trainees from USF Sponsored Program
To request credentials on a former or current USF Health resident or fellow, please follow the three-step process below. Verification requests will NOT be processed until all required forms and payment are received. Due to the high volume of requests we receive, please allow up to 4 weeks for delivery of completed forms (processing time may be longer for requests that include additional documentation from the file and/or legal review). If you have questions, please email the GME office.
If you have a credentialing request for a trainee from any HCA Healthcare affiliated program (under the sponsoring institution: HCA Healthcare/USF Morsani College of Medicine GME Programs) please contact the appropriate HCA hospital directly for credentialing verification: Graduate Medical Education Programs at HCA Healthcare | HCA Healthcare GME. HCA Healthcare is a separate institution, and this USF GME office does not complete verification forms for trainees who have graduated from an HCA program.
