Andrea Sivro
@andreasivro
I am a seasoned medical staff credentialing specialist with strong organizational and compliance expertise.
What I'm looking for
I am a credentialing specialist with over 20 years supporting hospitals, CVOs and medical staff offices across acute care settings. I have hands-on experience managing applications, verifications, and presenting files to Credentials Committees for appointment and privileging.
I maintain working knowledge of accreditation and regulatory standards including Joint Commission (JCAHO), NCQA and DNV, and I use systems such as MicroMed, Medversant, ECHO Databases and MD Staff to ensure database integrity and audit readiness. In lead roles I coordinated provider enrollment, payer applications and accuracy of credentialing databases.
My strengths include meticulous attention to detail, strong phone and administrative management, and reliable execution of primary source verifications and compliance checks. I am proficient with RightFax, QuickBooks and the Microsoft Office suite and consistently produce timely reports for committee review.
I am motivated by opportunities to improve credentialing workflows, support accurate provider onboarding, and contribute to a collaborative team focused on compliance and quality. I welcome roles where I can apply my credentialing, audit preparation and process-improvement skills.
