Credentialing of health care providers, facilities and
educational institutions is an integral component
in building and sustaining robust human resources
for health (HRH) systems. The credentialing
mechanisms—licensure/registration, certification
and accreditation—are among the most frequently
used quality assurance tools in health care and
serve as valuable instruments in the broader
function of health care regulation. This technical
brief examines the characteristics and potential
advantages of these mechanisms and common
challenges faced in implementing them in lowresource
settings.
