Credentialing and Recredentialing for Dentists

Starting early in 2020, your entire recredentialing process with Delta Dental of New Jersey & Connecticut will be online. This new capability, developed for us with DentalXChange, simplifies recredentialing for you.

Here's what you need to know:

• You won’t receive a recredentialing package in the mail anymore. Instead, the email from DentalXChange will include a link to our new online credentialing portal. The portal will contain everything you need for credentialing in one convenient location.
• There’s nothing you will need to do when the new credentialing tool comes out. When you come due for recredentialing, you’ll receive an email from DentalXChange to get started.
• The online credentialing tool will be free and will contain several time-saving features. Online forms have auto-populating fields, so you only need to enter information once. There’s an online repository to store documents. You’ll be able to e-sign your credentialing documents, too.

We still recredential dentists every three years. For example, if you were last credentialed in 2017, you’ll be recredentialed again in 2020, using DentalXChange. Look for an email from DentalXChange when it’s nearing time for your next recredentialing.
