Credentialing is not a formality — it's a lifeline.

In Episode 6 of Credentialing Chronicles, we break down:
🩺 A gynecologist accused of fraud, patient abuse, and unsafe practices.
🩺 A surgeon with a criminal past who harmed 299 children across hospitals.
🩺 A Texas transplant program where manipulation of waitlists cost lives.

When credentialing, privileging, and compliance systems fail — patients pay the ultimate price.

✅ For credentialing teams, medical staff pros, and healthcare leaders — this is your wake-up call.
