Three application defects routinely delay payor enrollment: incomplete work-history explanations for any gap over 30 days, a malpractice carrier-history that does not reconcile with the explanation, and CAQH attestation that has lapsed. Each forces a back-and-forth with the credentialing committee.
A new clinician without active payor enrollment cannot bill for covered services for most plans. Each month of delay is foregone revenue that does not retroactively recover.
Covered entities must annually recertify their 340B eligibility through HRSA. Missing the recertification window pushes the entity to inactive status, which means immediate loss of 340B pricing and potentially diversion violations on previously dispensed drugs. Reinstatement requires a new application.
The discount value of 340B pricing for a covered entity often exceeds six figures annually. Letting the recertification lapse for paperwork reasons is one of the most expensive administrative errors in the regulation.
OSHA inspections of healthcare facilities most commonly find three violations: an Exposure Control Plan that has not been reviewed annually (date-stamped review required), engineering controls that have not been re-evaluated when new devices are introduced, and post-exposure protocols that do not match the actual reporting workflow.
Each citation carries per-violation penalties, and willful or repeat designations multiply them. Re-evaluation paperwork is the cheapest control to maintain.
