VMS White Paper | Cross Country Healthcare

“What we found surprising is that so many of the respondents said they don't know if they have a VMS. From our experience, however, they probably have one and are not using it. This may be a factor of the respondents coming from the C-suite and other higher-level executives. Most VMS platforms address the challenges faced by staffing and production teams and may not necessarily touch the higher-level executives in their day-to-day roles”

“Some of the main benefits of using a VMS are that it can significantly reduce costs and time while providing scalability and accessibility. Data security is also a major factor with many new Software as a Service (SaaS) products leveraging the cloud for high-level encryption processes”

- Phillip Noe, Chief Information Officer,
Cross Country Healthcare

“Trends, forecasting, and predictive analytics are key drivers of VMS platforms. For example, a client might need to understand better their contingent labor spend, utilization (hours and dollars) and how labor can be best balanced to optimize costs”

- Buffy Stultz White, Group President of Workforce Solutions,
Cross Country Healthcare

“We recommend healthcare systems look for technology that can integrate with other systems and ensure it provides for self-service. The direction of VMS platforms is moving towards professional self-service, mobile/portal access, and supplier integration, which allows for an interconnected ecosystem. Additionally, a VMS needs to be agile and easily enhanced without interruption to the client. The leading platforms are adopting this methodology and moving to the cloud”

- Phillip Noe, Chief Information Officer,
Cross Country Healthcare

“A VMS allows end-users to maximize hard and soft dollar cost savings, optimize programs, and gain visibility into their overall workforce. Managing labor costs and gaining cost control by using the right mix of contingent labor and permanent staff is vital to controlling budgets. For instance, if spend is over budget related to contingent labor, then perhaps the utilization of permanent labor is not being managed properly”
