MINI-BLOG SERIES: Kimedics Success Stories (4 of 4)
More vendors. More agencies. More layers. Healthcare staffing has become a reactive web of costly workarounds. But the real innovation lies not in adding more—it’s in integrating things better.
Kimedics seamlessly integrates your agency partners, vendor platforms, and internal teams, even across multiple locations—giving you visibility, clarity and control of every shift, contract, and credential.
We empower care providers, like you, to cut through the chaos of typical workforce challenges. We’ve highlighted a few of these in this blog series to illustrate ways we can help.
SCENARIO: The Last-Minute Locum Lottery
Meet Matthew, a CMO often challenged with scheduling triage.
Matthew, Chief Medical Officer of a regional ER network, dreads weekend calls. A sudden surge in patient volume combined with two emergency physicians calling out meant he needed immediate coverage.
Without real-time visibility into his internal float pool or even readily available external providers, Matthew’s team resorted to frantic calls to multiple locum agencies. They paid exorbitant premium rates, not knowing if a lower-cost internal physician was available, or if they were even scheduling by their budget.
This reactive approach led to significant budget overruns – an invisible drain on department’s finances.
The Kimedics Fix
Kimedics provides Matthew with a centralized view of staffing needs, showing internal vs. external provider tracking.
He can quickly identify available clinicians (W2, 1099, or locums) and filter by credentials, availability, and even "schedule by spend" to optimize costs. This real-time visibility and strategic financial intelligence help reduce reliance on costly external labor and ensure optimal staff allocation.
