5 Tips to Finding the “Right” Healthcare Provider

Finding the “right” healthcare provider for your organization can be a full-time job.

In fact, 51.6% of healthcare organizations say the ability to find good people within a reasonable amount of time is “not very good”. Additionally, there are multiple challenges faced by healthcare organizations when it comes to hiring – like trying to hold onto good talent when turnover rates are higher than 20%. Therefore, healthcare organizations should be proactive in taking the necessary steps to find the “right” healthcare provider.

Here are 5 tips to help your healthcare organization find the “right” healthcare provider:

1. Revamp your brand (reputation, image, social media):

brand reputation

Now a day’s healthcare providers are researching your healthcare organization online. Consider revamping your “brand” to show how your healthcare organization is different than others, why it’s a good place to work, show employer reviews, and your social media accounts to showcase your organizations culture and story.

2. Develop “Competitive” Benefits And Scheduling Packages:

Get creative! Make sure your healthcare organization is providing healthcare providers with incentives aside from their salary. Incentives can include flexible work environments/telecommuting, mentoring, professional development, insurance, retirement savings plans etc.

3. Create “professional development” opportunities:

Continuing education is key! Make sure your healthcare organization offers professional development to ensure that healthcare providers have the opportunity to grow and seek continued education.

4. Look for extensive “experience”:

Experience in the healthcare industry plays a big role. Healthcare providers must be able to quickly and accurately diagnose and treat injuries of all kinds – even if they refer patients to a specialist for further treatment. 

5. Consider “tech savvy” candidates:

Candidates that are tech savvy have an advantage as they can quickly adapt to new or existing technologies. Having someone who is competent on EHR systems is beneficial as it reduces the time it takes to train and onboard.
