Browser Extension (bipSubmit)

bipSubmit is our Chrome browser extension. It has a single purpose: to help you complete and track provider credentialing applications on payer and hospital portals by prefilling those forms with data from your Bip profile. The extension is available only to signed-in Bip users and does not create a separate account.

To do this, the extension accesses:

What it accessesWhy
The active portal page (active tab)Read and fill the credentialing form fields on the portal you are working in
Your Bip provider profileProvide the name, credentials, and other data used to populate those forms
Local browser storageKeep your signed-in session and remember submission status between pages
Page-navigation eventsDetect when you land on a supported credentialing portal so the panel can offer to help

The extension requests broad site access so it can recognize the many different payer and hospital portals used in credentialing. It only reads or fills form data on a page when you actively use bipSubmit to prefill, submit, or track a credentialing application on that page. Form contents you choose to submit are sent to Bip's servers and the third-party services listed above to perform autofill and record the submission.

Extension data commitments:

  • We do not collect, store, or transmit your browsing or search history
  • We do not collect content from pages unrelated to a credentialing submission you initiate
  • We do not use extension data for advertising, tracking, or resale
  • The extension uses no third-party analytics or advertising SDKs
