Process
Agencies can verify their service providers’ credentials. This can be used where the individual therapists do not log into the CPSE Portal website due to the use of their own system that uploads attendances to the CPSE Portal.
- To access, go to “People” -> “Service Provider Credential Verification Listing.”'
- You will then see the list of providers to verify. Select “verify” next to the provider you wish to verify the credentials of.
The verification screen has three main sections:
- The list of information from their profile (name, NPI, license, etc.) that needs to be verified and attested that it is correct (upper left and outlined in red).
- The information for their license as it appears on the NYS Office of the Professions website (right hand side and outlined in green).
- The information from the National NPI Registry for their NPI (bottom left and outlined in purple).
- Be sure to compare all data exactly to each other, as you will be attesting that the information in the Portal is accurate.
If you try to click “I attest” without individually verifying each component, the following error will occur.
- Once you have confirmed that all of the data is accurate and all of the “verify” boxes are checked, click “I attest.”
The prompt to enter your pin will then pop up. Your name and signature will auto-populate based upon your profile on CPSE Portal.
- Enter pin and select “I agree.”
- You will then see the confirmation underneath the verification on the left.
If you get this message:
This means, that you do not have your Signature Title and Credentials filled out. This does NOT have to do with the therapist you are verifying, but rather, the agency admin.
You will need to go to your profile and add this in.
Though you are not a therapist you will need something along the lines of the following.
