Video Transcription

Video Summary

The webinar titled "Future-Proofing Healthcare with New Staffing Models," presented by MedAxium and industry partner ProLocums, focused on innovative staffing solutions to address healthcare challenges. It highlighted the importance of new staffing models due to an aging population, physician retirements, and increased disease prevalence. The discussion centered on locum tenens, a flexible staffing solution allowing healthcare providers to work temporarily across various locations. This approach helps manage physician burnout, provide continuous care, and address workforce shortages.<br /><br />Experts featured in the webinar included Dr. Ish Singla, President of ProLocums, and Kristen Doster, CEO of Vemsta. They emphasized the role of vendor management systems (VMS) like Vemsta in optimizing staffing processes. VMS helps health systems streamline operations by consolidating agency contracts, digitizing credential management, and offering cost savings without upfront costs. It promises improved efficiency, faster onboarding, and sustainable economic benefits. The speakers also noted that strategic succession planning using VMS could address long-term staffing needs and reduce operational inefficiencies. Attendees were encouraged to utilize the webinar’s resources and contact the presenters for further guidance.
