staffing cost challenges

In 2022, Mount Sinai faced an industry-wide challenge: cut facility expenses without sacrificing patient coverage. CareRev was ready to help. Using CareRev’s Smart Rates technology, Mount Sinai was able to meet patient demand, ease the burden of manual processes on its internal staff and save money and time by hiring flexible, local healthcare professionals with CareRev’s optimized market rates and automated processes.

Solution

Significant savings,
immediate impact

Proven partnership

Quotes.

We know that if things don’t change soon, the fiscal future of America’s healthcare facilities is bleak. It’s not out of the realm of possibility that some of today’s healthcare systems may not be here in another 5 years. Something needs to change or America’s healthcare system will suffer.”
