01

Coverage request

Submit facility, unit, specialty, shift type, dates, credentialing deadline, call expectations, rate range, and urgency.

02

Candidate review

Compare vendors and providers using consistent packets: CV, license, board status, availability, rate notes, references, and document gaps.

03

Credentialing readiness

Track forms, approvals, missing documents, start-date risk, and owner follow-up before a provider appears on the schedule.

04

Shift and time control

See accepted clinicians, 8-hour and 12-hour shifts, call, salary/admin days, submitted time, returned time, and payroll-ready approvals.
