GetCertAlert

Frequently Asked Questions

What is GetCertAlert?

A specialized credential tracking vault designed for medical clinics to eliminate compliance risks. It replaces error-prone spreadsheets with secure document storage, AI-assisted data extraction, and escalating expiration reminders to protect your clinic from fines and liability.

Do you offer a free trial?

Yes! You can start a 14-day free trial right now. We validate real users simply via email—no credit card is required to begin testing the platform.

Are you HIPAA Compliant?

HIPAA applies strictly to Protected Health Information (PHI), which relates to patient data. GetCertAlert is built exclusively to manage employee data (Personally Identifiable Information, or PII). Because we do not store or transmit patient files, your clinic is not burdened with additional HIPAA overhead by using our service. However, we still utilize enterprise-grade security protocols to protect your workforce data.

Where is my data stored and is it secure?

Security is our top priority. Your data is housed in SOC 2 Type II compliant data centers. We implement strict Row-Level Security (RLS) policies and utilize full AES-256 encryption both at rest and in transit, ensuring your organizational documents are accessible only to authorized personnel.

Will this help with NCQA audits?

Absolutely. While we are not a Credentials Verification Organization (CVO), GetCertAlert is designed to directly support NCQA documentation standards. Instead of rushing to compile paperwork when auditors arrive, you can instantly pull up your centralized, color-coded dashboard to prove your staff is 100% compliant and up-to-date.

How do the automated reminders work?

Once a credential is saved, the system takes over. Escalating background emails are sent first to the specific staff member, then to their assigned manager, and finally to clinic administrators as the expiration deadline approaches, giving you plenty of time to intervene.
