Common Pain Points:

Incomplete or inaccurate paperwork which is critical to the process
Ineffective communication

From agency during process or agency not understanding the facility’s process
Time delays in the process

Ideas:

Senior staff oversight instead of junior staff
Monitoring total spend

Be honest in your invoice processing
Set minimum expectations for applications in order to be considered
Be wary of agencies

Agencies can pre-populate applications for the physician and this can lead to unintended false information
Working with 3 or more agencies can quickly fill all of your time
Provide internal staff with good tools and systems
Communicate regularly with agency and credentialing teams

Weekly huddle lead by recruitment team
