Monitor credentials and license expiry

The Credential Tracker surfaces license and certification status across your clinical staff so you can act before a credential lapses.

Before you start

View the credential dashboard

  1. Open HR & Compliance and click Credential Tracker.
  2. The tracker lists employees with their tracked credentials. Each row shows:
Column Description
Employee Name and role.
Credential Type The credential category (see the list below).
Expiration Date Date the credential expires.
Status Valid, Expiring, Expired, or Missing.

Credential status is derived automatically from the expiration date:

Status Meaning
Valid More than 5 days until expiration.
Expiring Expires within the next 5 days.
Expired Past its expiration date.
Missing Required credential not yet on file.

Upload a credential

  1. Click Upload Credential.
  2. Select the Employee and the Credential Type. Available types include RN License, NP License, CPR Certification, WOCN Certification, NPI, DEA License, State Controlled Substance License, BLS Certification, and Other.
  3. Enter the Expiration Date (required).
  4. Attach the Document (PDF or image) and add Notes if needed. (Territory is set to National.)
  5. Save. The credential appears in the tracker with the status derived from its expiration date.

Renew a credential

  1. Find the expiring or expired credential in the list.
  2. Upload the renewed credential for the same employee and credential type — uploading over an existing credential updates it (the dialog reads Update Credential).
  3. Set the new Expiration Date and attach the renewed document. On save, the status recalculates immediately.

Result

Each employee's credentials show a live Valid / Expiring / Expired / Missing status, so you can see at a glance who needs a renewal within the next 5 days.

A Send Reminder action appears on credential rows, but it does not currently send email — it is not yet wired to notifications. Follow up with staff directly for renewals.

Allowing a clinician with an expired license to document and bill for visits creates significant CMS audit risk. If a license lapses, deactivate the employee's Medipyxis access immediately from Facility Users.
