Workforce management is top of mind for healthcare executives as COVID-19, historical inflation, and critical health worker shortages have pushed hospitals and health systems to their operational and financial brink. With total healthcare labor expenses jumping 20.8% from 2019 to 2022 and "...median operating margins for hospitals fell from 5.6% to -1.4% between December 2021 and March 2022", health system executives are looking for innovative ways to curb labor costs.
The nursing shortage has only increased during the COVID-19 pandemic further increasing the need for a healthcare staffing partner to serve as a resource to fill vacancies as soon as possible. To ensure that facilities do not fall further behind in nurse staffing and have access to top talent when it is most needed, it is important to recognize that not all healthcare partners are the same and there is no one-size-fits-all solution.
