ICON Credentialing Made Easy: How ICON Exchange Streamlines the Process for Anesthesia Providers
June 14, 2025

If you’re a CRNA or an anesthesiologist working locum tenens, you already know that credentialing can be a major pain point. Between gathering documents, chasing down references, and navigating hospital-specific requirements, the process can feel more like a full-time job than a formality. 

That’s where ICON Exchange steps in. 

At ICON Exchange, we understand the unique credentialing needs of anesthesia providers. Our team specializes in supporting CRNAs and anesthesiologists through the onboarding process, ensuring you’re fully credentialed and ready to start your assignment, without unnecessary delays or frustration. 

Why Credentialing Matters in Locum Tenens 

Credentialing is essential to verify that you meet all the requirements to practice at a healthcare facility. While it’s a standard part of working in locums, the process can vary significantly between hospitals, states, and staffing agencies. Timelines are often tight, and paperwork can feel endless. 

For anesthesia professionals, especially those balancing multiple assignments or juggling personal commitments, this can be overwhelming. 

That’s why ICON Exchange has built a system that takes the complexity off your plate. 

A Process Built for Providers, Not Paperwork 

We believe your time is better spent practicing, not chasing signatures. 

Our dedicated credentialing team works with you and for you, guiding you through each step of the process: 

  • Centralized Document Management: We help you gather, organize, and submit all required materials, licenses, certifications, DEA registration, references, and more, so nothing falls through the cracks.
  • Clear Communication: From the moment you accept a contract, we outline the credentialing timeline and requirements. You’ll always know what’s needed and when, with proactive check-ins from our team to keep things on track.
  • Facility-Specific Expertise: Every hospital has different onboarding protocols. We stay up-to-date on what each facility requires, ensuring no last-minute surprises or delays.
  • Fast Turnaround Times: Because we’ve streamlined the process, our providers are often credentialed faster than with other staffing companies, meaning you get to work (and get paid) sooner.

Support You Can Count On 

At ICON Exchange, we don’t see you as just another file in the system. Our credentialing coordinators are trained specifically to work with anesthesia providers, and we understand the clinical, legal, and logistical aspects of your role. 

We’re not just helping you fill out paperwork, we’re advocating for you, removing friction, and ensuring a smooth transition into every new assignment. 

Whether you’re credentialing for your first assignment or your fiftieth, our goal is to make the process seamless every time. 

Real Results, Real Feedback 

Our anesthesia providers often tell us that ICON’s credentialing process is the smoothest they’ve ever experienced. Why? Because we’ve invested in the systems, people, and processes that matter most to busy professionals.
