Common questions about NJ FamilyCare credentialing

Does NJ FamilyCare require CAQH?
No. NJ FamilyCare does not enroll through CAQH ProView, so credentialing data is submitted directly on NJ FamilyCare's own application instead. You still need the same underlying documents — license, DEA where applicable, malpractice coverage and work history.
