LightSpun is NCQA Certified for 11 out of 11 verification services

We’re proud to announce that LightSpun has achieved NCQA Certification as a Credentialing Verification Organization (CVO), the gold standard in our field. This achievement strengthens our credibility and trust with DSOs, payors, and industry partners.

This recognition is a major milestone in our mission to modernize healthcare operations, cut out inefficiencies in provider credentialing, and set the bar for quality across the industry.

Why this is a big deal:
Achieving NCQA CVO Certification signals that LightSpun has met the highest national standards in credential verification. The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) evaluates CVOs across a wide range of criteria to ensure that credentialing practices are thorough, reliable, and aligned with best practices.

Only top-performing organizations are fully certified across all 11 out of 11 verification services—and LightSpun is now part of that select group. The certification applies to both payors and DSOs.

With full NCQA certification, DSOs and payors working with Lightspun get:

  • Verified credentialing that meets the highest national standards
  • Faster onboarding for providers
  • Audit-ready, automated processes that save time and reduce admin headaches
  • Confidence you can show to payors and regulators

“Achieving CVO certification from NCQA demonstrates that LightSpun has the systems, process and personnel in place to thoroughly and accurately verify providers' credentials and help health plan clients meet their accreditation goals.” — Margaret E. O’Kane, President, NCQA

From our CEO:

“This milestone affirms LightSpun’s commitment to transforming healthcare administration through innovation and uncompromising quality,” said Shaju Puthussery, Co‑Founder and CEO. “By combining deep expertise in dental and AI, we’ve built a best‑in‑class platform that streamlines provider management and exceeds industry standards for accuracy, efficiency, and security.”​​
