Sets Industry Systems Integration Standard and Increases ROI for Healthcare Suppliers

ShiftWise, the nation’s leading provider of end-to-end workforce solutions now provides seamless data integration with Clearview Staffing Software, the foremost provider of business management staffing software for healthcare suppliers. The integration between the ShiftWise and ClearviewTSS systems eliminates dual data entry between the two systems, provides suppliers with instant access to job requisitions and delivers faster and more accurate applicant submissions.

Healthcare staffing suppliers, via the Web, can now electronically link the ClearviewTSS solution with the ShiftWise Vendor Management System (VMS). Hundreds of healthcare staffing suppliers using ClearviewTSS can now place medical professionals at facilities using ShiftWise without leaving the Clearview system. Key transactions between the two systems, such as sending and receiving job orders, staff confirmations and staff profile management can now be conducted instantly and seamlessly.

“The ability to instantly share data between ShiftWise and Clearview will dramatically increase the speed at which we conduct our day-to-day staffing operations,” said Tim Fagan, CEO of American Nursing Services. “We’ve been using the two systems independently for years, and with great success. Now, the ability to integrate the solutions will give us a competitive advantage over other suppliers.”

“Suppliers are increasingly pursuing their own strategic growth initiatives through VMS programs, and our alliance with ShiftWise allows us to make it even easier for our clients to pursue these new opportunities within the healthcare staffing industry,” said David Gorman, president and CEO of Clearview Staffing Software. “ShiftWise has proven to be an industry leader in healthcare VMS and we are excited about the opportunities this partnership presents.”

It provides unprecedented usability, enabling medical staffing organizations and hospital HR departments to enhance and expedite their recruiting and on-boarding efforts. “The upgrades and additions to RSS 4.0 are significant. We have worked closely with our clients to address their specific needs. We listen intently and we act quickly,” stated David Gorman, President of Clearview Staffing Software. RSS 4.0 combines secure online employment application processing with nationally validated competency tests and skills checklists, creating a seamless and comprehensive means of capturing complete candidate profiles and accurately assessing candidates’ qualifications and competency.

One of the most impressive additions to RSS 4.0 is the new electronic document center called eDocs. Beyond providing a central location to store all electronic documents, eDocs allows staffing organizations to upload any document and transform it into an electronic form that can be completed online. The easy-to-use drag and drop form creator auto-populates candidate data from their online application, dramatically reducing the time spent on documents by as much as 75%. That means less errors, less paper and less hassles.

Another invaluable and timesaving component of eDocs is ClearSign, our proprietary technology that allows candidates to enter an electronic signature with a click of a mouse. No more mailing, faxing or waiting. ClearSign is a validated and approved method for signing sensitive documents utilizing uncompromised security.

“One thing users will notice the moment they log on, is the new and improved interface. Our goal is to enhance the usability while streamlining workflow. We feel this is going to have a very positive effect in helping users maximize the full potential of RSS,” said Mr. Gorman. RSS 4.0 offers a new more intuitive interface that makes the software easier to use and provides access to critical information without opening multiple windows. One such example is the all new Assignment Manager, which decreases the amount of time it takes to communicate with candidates. It allows users to create “packets” of required items for candidate completion and assigns them accordingly. Skills Checklists. Competency Tests. And important documents such as employee handbooks and orientation materials. With Assignment Manager, staffing personnel can build packets based on position classification, regional requirements, hospital guidelines and more. Sending packets versus multiple document attachments saves time and increases productivity.

RSS is widely recognized as the standard for Validated Competency Tests and Skills Checklists. Several new additions to 4.0 further demonstrate Clearview’s in-depth expertise and understanding of the health care staffing industry. With over 100 tests now available in the RSS library, clients can be assured that their medical personnel resources are among the most qualified candidates, and that patients are getting the highest quality care possible.

Clearview continually provides enhancements and updates to RSS that are sure to make sourcing and qualifying top medical talent easier than ever.
