Here are just a few of the benefits available to member facilities through their affiliation with AHSA:

Unbiased member representation in the critical area of supplemental staffing. AHSA provides no direct staffing but rather through a network of the nation’s top staffing providers.

Comprehensive services available through a single dedicated AHSA representative – Nursing, Radiology/Imaging, Pharmacy, Laboratory, Therapy, Physician, IT, and Medical Office.

Improved "buying power" through the association's group of facilities - drives down supplemental staffing costs.

Centralized, up-to-date quality assurance and credentialing processes administered and audited by AHSA - assures quality and reduces associated risk/liability.

Centralized coordination of all staffing agency negotiation, contracting, and ongoing management – removes disruption to member operations, allowing them to focus on core competencies.

Single point-of-contact staff request and fulfillment processes - removes time-consuming challenge of working with multiple agencies on a daily basis.

Valuable summary billing process and “real-time” staffing usage reporting - reduces exorbitant processing costs and provides members a tool to closely monitor one of their largest expense categories.

State-of-the-art, simple-to-use web-based staffing tools allowing all facility staffing needs to be managed in a highly efficient, single-point solution. Staff credentials are automatically checked every single night and actual credential documents are archived online.
