How Medwave scores

Documented capabilities describe the scope supported by our sources, which may include vendor documentation. They do not establish service quality or independent performance.

Documented capability score Enrollment · Recredentialing scope documented 4/12 capabilities reviewed · 8 unverified · Rubric v1.1 3 fully supported · 1 partly supported · 0 documented as unsupported

A numeric capability score needs at least 8 capabilities with sources, including PSV, enrollment, recredentialing and expiration tracking. Core capabilities still unverified: Primary source verification, License and expirables monitoring.

27/77 relative capability weight reviewed. Scores with different coverage are not directly comparable. Read the score with its coverage: 100 means full support within the reviewed scope, not that every capability is supported. Unverified capabilities are excluded, not counted as zero. How to compare scores →

Quality evidence: 1/6 dimensions reviewed. Pricing transparency alone does not establish service quality.
