CAQH Board Certification

Might be a stupid q… I just got hired by a Lenscrafters location (first post-grad job woooo) and they are asking for my CAQH ID. Haven’t set it up yet so going through the app now.

It asks if I’m board certified but says that it’s different than taking the exams required for state licensure but has NBEO listed as an option as the certifying board? I just graduated, passed all NBEO and am licensed but have not done any additional certifications. Would I answer yes or no to this?

Thank you all!

Costco fill-in

Thinking of filling in for a Costco doc (CA) as a new grad before starting my full time position. Feeling nervous about practicing for the first time especially as a fill-in with little to no guidance on how things flow. Any advice from people who have worked at Costco or similar? Obviously way different than school-paced exams. Trying to figure out in my head how to handle having patients come back for CL checks (new fit/re-fit), glaucoma suspects, etc. Basically just things that we had pts come back for all the time in school but not sure how it works in the real world especially in such a fast paced environment. Any advice is appreciated!
