Bottom line

- Pick QGenda if you want scheduling and credentialing on one provider record across a health system, rather than a standalone credentialing point tool.
Medallion
Credentialing, licensing, and enrollment on one platform
- Founded
- 2020
- HQ
- San Francisco, CA
- Stage
- Series C+
- Raised
- $130M
What it does
- Automates state licensing applications and renewals
- Credentialing with primary source verification
- Payer enrollment across commercial and government plans
- Continuous monitoring for sanctions and expirables
- CredAlliance clearinghouse shares credentialing across payers
- Single system of record for provider data
Where it's strong
- Broadest scope in the category, covering licensing, credentialing, enrollment, and monitoring in one platform, which cuts vendor sprawl.
- Well capitalized at $130M with brand-name investors and 250+ customers, so vendor risk is lower than most peers.
- Strong fit for multi-state telehealth and fast-scaling groups that need licensing and enrollment handled together.
What buyers should weigh
- Much of the work is service-backed rather than pure software, so outcomes depend on Medallion's ops team; get turnaround SLAs in writing.
- Pricing is per-provider and per-service, and enrollment is typically priced separately from credentialing, so total cost climbs with scope.
- CredAlliance launched in August 2025 and its payer network effects are still unproven.

What buyers should weigh

- Full workforce rollouts across a health system take real change management, not just setup.
