Over the last 18-24 months, health systems have become more and more aware of the need for a unified workforce management strategy to combat future workforce challenges. If your organization hasn't taken steps towards a unified strategy, here are a few places to start: - Establish a formal governance committee with HR, finance, IT, clinical teams, and operations. - Leverage technology to simplify operations, streamline scheduling, and enhance communication between departments. - Build a community of workforce leaders to share perspectives and best practices across various hospitals and health systems. We've included five key takeaways for healthcare leaders in our blog: https://lnkd.in/eKBz4drR What do you recommend to prepare for future workforce challenges? #HealthcareWorkforce #HealthcareInnovation #WorkforceShortages #Governance

What happens when a provider has concerning legal issues that don’t show up in traditional databases? You might find them with a simple Google search. Anne Roberts, Esq., CPMSM, CPCS, breaks down how targeted searches like: “[Provider Name] + Lawsuit” “[Provider Name] + Investigation” “[Provider Name] + Fraud” …can uncover patient complaints, civil suits, and regulatory issues that wouldn’t appear in a standard credentialing file. The best credentialing teams don’t just verify — they investigate. Do you incorporate similar searches into your credentialing workflows?

This change can help you improve patient access and revenue potential at your hospital. ⬇️ Patients are waiting an average of 26 days for a scheduled appointment. (And in some locations and specialities, that wait time is even longer.) Credentialing delays exacerbate this issue - if a provider isn't credentialed in a timely manner, they can't deliver care, further pushing back access. The best way to rectify this? 🫱🏼🫲🏾 Connect your credentialing and provider scheduling on one workforce management platform. Imagine having real-time visibility into provider credential statuses without having to contact other teams. Schedulers could more accurately build out schedules further in advance, and providers would be able to see patients as soon as credentials are approved. Don't just view credentialing as a compliance requirement, but utilize the process to enable greater efficiency, access, and financial performance.
