Trigger

Your billing agency sent you an invite email. You clicked it, set a password, and you're staring at a dashboard.

Outcome

You know where to find: your claims, your patients, your providers' credentialing status, and your outstanding balances. You've bookmarked the URL and confirmed your contact info is right.

Where

Steps

  1. Land on Dashboard. What you see:
    • KPI strip — credentialed % of your providers, monthly revenue (collected for your practice), denial count.
    • Action items — anything that needs your attention (most actions are the agency's job, but a few need you: a license renewal coming up, a missing document request).
  2. Top nav tour:
    • Dashboard — where you are.
    • Patients — your patient roster with balances per patient.
    • Providers — your provider roster.
    • Applications — payer enrollments in progress.
    • Compliance — your providers' licenses, exclusion screening.
    • RCM — claims, payments, denials, statements (filtered to your practice).
    • Settings — your profile, your users.
  3. Bookmark the URL. app.credentik.com/v2/#/dashboard.
  4. Profile → confirm contact info. Settings → Profile → verify name, email, phone are right. This is what the agency uses to reach you.
  5. Two-factor authentication. Strongly recommended for accessing patient data. Settings → Security → Enable 2FA. The platform uses TOTP (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password).

Watch-outs

  • You see only YOUR practice's data. Tenant isolation is enforced server-side — you can't accidentally see another practice. If you DO see something that doesn't look like yours (wrong patient, wrong provider), email your agency immediately. That'd be a bug.
  • You can read more than you can write. Most "delete" buttons aren't visible to you. Some "edit" buttons are. If something seems read-only that shouldn't be, ask the agency to change your role permissions (rare).
  • The agency may be working on your data live. Don't be surprised if a claim's status changes while you're looking at it. The platform is real-time.
  • Don't share your login. If a colleague needs access, invite them — don't give out your password. Audit trails depend on knowing who did what.
