Medical RecruitmentMarket Drivers and Opportunities

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) to Favor Market

RPO is an effective solution for healthcare systems where an external service provider partners with the organization's recruitment and Human Resource (HR) Department to hire candidates quickly and efficiently. Also, supply and demand imbalances in the healthcare organization experience staff burnouts, clinician shortages, and nursing retirements. Therefore, RPO teams, in such cases, focus on day-to-day tasks related to recruiting candidates so that the HR department can focus on strategic initiatives. Further, the RPO team can lower hiring costs, providing advantages such as permanent and temporary staffing at a low cost and ultimately improving the productivity of the healthcare organization. For example, a community-based non-profit health system required a dedicated number of staffs for a new surgery centre for more than 100 days. After the healthcare company tie-up with AMN Healthcare RPO team, it reduced the requisition backlog by 15% in the first month, decreased its reliance on temporary workers, and filled a target of a total 700 recruitment positions with three-years partnerships. Therefore, more and more RPO approaches will contribute significantly to reduce healthcare shortages globally driving the market growth.
