What to Look for in a Managed Service Provider
Does the one you’re considering have the connections and experience to meet your current and future needs?
1. Transparency
Your chosen Service Provider should be forthcoming in discussing its screening, billing and other processes. They should also be upfront with any fees charged to you and to vendors.
2. Industry Connections
In an industry as highly regulated as education, a partner that knows state-by-state requirements and guidelines will prevent delays in service and ensure compliance.
3. Personalized Service
Just like you want to develop positive relationships with your staff, your Service Provider should listen to your needs and concerns while also understanding your challenges.
4. Education Experience
Healthcare professionals who work in an educational environment represent a narrow and specific field. The ideal managed services partner will have experience in both healthcare and education.
5. Scalability
Consider the scope of your staffing needs. Can they provide the number of healthcare providers you need, including independent contractors, temporary, and temp-to-perm candidates?
