1. 1) maintaining provider data bases for claim adjudication, provider directories, patient referrals, and reporting provider information,
   
   
2. 2) submitting an application to join a provider organization or provider network such as, but not limited to, a hospital, preferred provider organization (PPO) or health maintenance organization (HMO), and
   
   
3. 3) verifying credentials such as educational/professional qualifications, licenses, and malpractice coverage/history.
