Easy to Join

DirectNet is an open access PPO with the only criteria for participation being staff privileges at a participating hospital or licensure to practice in North Carolina for specialties that do not render hospital services. For a list of participating hospitals, please reference Provider Search.

Becoming a participating provider is a rapid process at DirectNet since we have delegated the function of credentialing to our network hospitals to reduce the administrative burden on you.

If you wish for any physician extenders (i.e. PA, NP) in your practice to be listed on our website, they must be credentialed under the same guidelines as a new physician provider.
