CAQH Re-attestation Calculator
CAQH profiles must be re-attested every 120 days or payer credentialing stalls. Enter the last attestation date and get the due date, status, and the next cycle dates.
Every 120 days, every provider enrolled with CAQH ProView must re-attest — confirm that their profile data is still accurate — or payers who pull data from CAQH can treat the profile as out of date, stalling credentialing and, in some cases, claims. Enter the last attestation date and this calculator gives the next due date, the days remaining, a clear status, and the following three cycle dates so the whole year can go on the calendar today.
Calculate the re-attestation cycle
Why the 120-day cycle matters more than it looks
CAQH ProView is the data source most commercial payers use to verify provider information. When a profile passes its re-attestation window, the data is flagged as not current: payer credentialing files stall, directory listings can be suppressed, re-credentialing packets come back incomplete, and some payers pause enrollment maintenance until the profile is attested again. The fix takes minutes — log in, review each section, correct anything that changed (address, practice locations, malpractice coverage, hospital affiliations), and attest — but it only happens if someone owns the date. Three working rules: one owner for the whole roster’s attestation calendar, a 14-day warning (the “Due soon” band in this calculator) rather than a due-date alarm, and attest on data changes anyway, because a mid-cycle move or new location should be updated when it happens, not at the next cycle. Multi-provider practices often pair this calendar with the state license tracker so every recurring credentialing deadline lives in one place — our credentialing and enrollment team runs exactly that calendar for clients.
Frequently asked questions
How often must a provider re-attest in CAQH?
Every 120 days. CAQH ProView requires providers (or their authorized practice staff) to review and attest that the profile information is complete and accurate on that cycle; many payers also send their own reminders as the date approaches. Attesting early restarts the 120-day count from the new attestation date.
What happens if a provider misses the re-attestation date?
The profile is treated as not current. Payers that rely on CAQH data can stall credentialing and re-credentialing, suppress directory information, and delay enrollment updates until the provider re-attests. It does not erase the profile — logging in and attesting restores current status — but anything in flight during the lapse can be delayed.
Does re-attestation replace re-credentialing?
No. Re-attestation keeps the CAQH profile current; re-credentialing is each payer’s own periodic re-verification (often every 24–36 months, varying by payer and state) and usually draws on the CAQH data. Keeping CAQH current is what makes each payer’s re-credentialing go smoothly.
