Short answer: yes. As of June 2026, CAQH is now DataSpring, powered by CAQH. If you credential through the CAQH Provider Data Portal, nothing about your day to day changes. Same portal, same login, same data. The name on the door is different.
If you logged in this week and saw a new name, you are not imagining it. CAQH, the organization most occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and physical therapists know as the place they enter and maintain their credentialing data, has rebranded to DataSpring. The announcement went out alongside the AHIP conference, and the new name is already live across the website.
For independent providers who manage their own credentialing, a rebrand can be a small jolt. You rely on this system to get paid, and any change to something that sits between you and your reimbursement deserves a second look. So here is the plain version of what actually happened.
What changed
The name. CAQH is now DataSpring. The organization is framing it as a brand evolution rather than a new product, and it kept “powered by CAQH” attached to the new name to signal continuity.
The website. The main site now carries DataSpring branding, and there is a new dataspring.com domain in addition to the familiar caqh.org.
That is essentially it for anything you can see today.
What did not change
Your portal. The CAQH Provider Data Portal still exists under that name. You still enter your professional and practice information once and share it with the plans you authorize.
Your login. Your existing credentials still work. The Provider Data Portal login and the other CAQH portal logins are all still in place.
Your data. Your profile, your uploaded documents, your attestation history, none of it disappears or resets because of a name change. You are not starting over.
Your workflow. The collect-once, share-with-many model that makes CAQH worth the effort is unchanged. You still attest on the same schedule and the same plans still pull your information.
What you should actually do
For most providers, the honest answer is nothing. But a rebrand is a reasonable prompt to do the credentialing hygiene you have been meaning to get to anyway:
- Log in and confirm your profile still looks right. A quick scan beats a surprise later.
- Check that your attestation is current. If you are coming up on a re-attestation window, handle it now while you are already in there.
- Make sure the right plans still have access. If you have added or dropped any payer relationships, confirm your authorizations match.
- Update your bookmarks if a new dataspring.com link replaces an old one in your workflow.
Quick answers
Is CAQH gone?
No. The organization still exists and operates the same portals. It is now called DataSpring, powered by CAQH.
Do I need to create a new account or re-enter my data?
No. Your existing login and your existing profile carry over.
Is DataSpring safe to keep using?
It is the same organization handling your data the same way, with the same security posture, including HITRUST certification. Your information lives where it always has.
Why did CAQH rebrand?
The organization says the new name reflects its broader role in connecting healthcare data across providers and payers, beyond the credentialing function many clinicians know it for.
Does this change how I get credentialed with health plans?
No. Plans still pull your information from the same portal. The process you already know stays the same.
The part nobody tells you about credentialing
Here is the thing a rebrand quietly reminds every independent provider: credentialing is one more system you are responsible for keeping current, on top of attestations, re-credentialing cycles, license renewals, and the payer paperwork that never really ends. None of it touches a patient. All of it can stall your pay.
At Coral Care, our occupational, speech, and physical therapists do not manage this part alone. We handle credentialing and payer setup for the providers in our network, so the time you would spend chasing portals and attestation windows goes back into your caseload. You keep your license and your clinical work. We take the administrative weight.
If credentialing is the part of independent practice you would happily hand off, see what it looks like to join the Coral Care network.
