Trust
Exactly what we verify — and what we don't share.
CoStint facilitates verification; we are not the primary source for professional licensure. Every badge is a separate, individually evidenced claim that shows its source category, verification date, and expiration. A badge is a statement of what was checked and when — not a guarantee about a person or property.
The badges
| Claim | What it means | Evidence source |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Verified | The account holder matches a valid government identity. | Provider-hosted ID verification. |
| Healthcare Credential Verified | An active credential or verified healthcare employment matches the person's identity. | Primary-source board lookup, recognized registry, or reviewed employment evidence. |
| Active Assignment Verified | A current travel assignment matches the person's role, market, and dates. | Agency attestation or independently reviewed assignment evidence. |
| Background Status Verified | A current screening meets the approved aggregate status contract. | Checkr or an approved provider; aggregate status only. |
| Property Provider Verified | The landlord or manager's identity is verified. | Identity provider. |
| Property Authority Verified | The person has authority to offer the property. | Ownership, management, or authorization evidence, reviewed privately. |
| Listing Address Verified | The offered property and address are consistent with the verified authority evidence. | Address and property review. |
What a counterparty can see
- First name and profession label
- Badge statuses with source category and dates
- Assignment city and date range
- Neighborhood-level location only
- Aggregate background status, where required for a stay
What a counterparty can never see
- License numbers, DOB, SSN, or home address
- Uploaded documents or assignment contracts
- Pay rate or stipend details
- Raw background reports or any charge-level detail
- Exact property addresses before mutual interest
Credential checks and background screening are separate
Proving you're a healthcare professional never requires buying a criminal background check. When a background check is needed for a specific stay, it runs through Checkr or an approved provider at high intent — after mutual interest or an accepted application — and counterparties receive an aggregate current/not-current status only. CoStint never adjudicates reports and never resells report contents.
Your controls
Verification records are yours. Sharing a status summary with a counterparty requires a legitimate transaction context, and portable reuse of your verification profile is consent-gated — off by default and revocable at any time. Expired or revoked verifications drop off your public profile immediately.
