Participating Providers
In order to be an HWMG participating provider, providers must pass:
- HWMG’s initial credentialing process: Providers must submit their credentials and related information, which is reviewed by HWMG’s Credentialing Committee.
- HWMG’s recredentialing process: Providers must review and update their information every three years.
Providers are expected to notify HWMG of any changes as soon as possible. Before obtaining services, please verify whether a provider is currently participating by asking the provider’s office, accessing our online directory search, or contacting us for assistance.
We make every effort to keep the information on this site current and accurate, but there are limitations because providers supply their own data to HWMG. It is important you know what information is verified and what is not.
