Managed Services
Your workforce function, managed end-to-end.
Managing a healthcare workforce is a full-time job in itself. Sourcing, credentialling, rostering, compliance and reporting all take focus away from care.
We take it off your plate. Our managed services run all or part of your workforce function, so your team can focus on care while we handle the complexity behind it.
Our managed services include:
- Contingent workforce management
all temporary and agency labour managed through one program
- Master vendor
HCA fills your requirements first and manages approved second-tier suppliers
- Neutral vendor
HCA manages your supplier panel impartially, with no preference for its own staff
- Rostering and fulfilment
shifts scheduled, released and filled against agreed service levels
- Credentialling and compliance
every worker verified before placement, whichever supplier they come from
- Payroll, billing and reporting
consolidated invoicing, spend analytics and SLA reporting
One Partner for the Whole Workforce
Managing multiple agencies, systems and compliance obligations drains time and money.
We consolidate it into a single managed service, with one partner accountable for sourcing, credentialling, rostering, compliance and reporting across your entire contingent workforce. Backed by a national network and proven technology, we reduce cost, risk and administration while improving visibility and control.
Neutral by design
In a neutral vendor program, every approved supplier receives shifts at the same time and on the same terms, and fill performance is reported transparently, including HCA’s own.
.
1. Discovery
current suppliers, spend, rates, and compliance baseline
2. Design
model, service levels, rate card and reporting agreed
3. Transition
suppliers onboarded and workers credentialled with no gap in cover
4. Optimise
regular reviews to reduce sped and lift fill rates
