Tips for new CPDR online users
Credentialing & Verification Update, January 3, 2007
The newly redesigned 2007 Credentialing and Privileging Desktop Reference (CPDR) is an interactive and searchable tool for every step in your credentialing and verification research. We redesigned it for 2007 with you, the user, in mind.
A few tips for searching on CPDR:
- To narrow your search when using the our expansive Verification Source Directory or our Standards and Regs Search function, simply type in the name of organization. If you're not sure of the name, type in the key descriptor words you do know, as follows: "licensing" and "nursing" and "SC"
- To broaden your list-for example if you want to see all of the medical schools in New York-use just a couple keywords: "medical school" and "NY" for example, will deliver a very long list of records
- When using states' names, use the state abbreviation, as follows: MN for Minnesota
