Healthcare HR software are designed for the health care industry specifically and are built to handle stringent, changing regulations and compliance. Health care administrators, managers, and human resources staff turn to industry-specific workforce and performance management, payroll, and time and attendance solutions to streamline HR operations within hospitals, medical practices, and other health care organizations. Optimizing and automating tasks like staffing, incident reporting, training, and financial management allow medical professionals to focus on delivering care.
Healthcare HR systems integrate or communicate well with existing health care operations systems to further the efficiency and effectiveness of the entire facility. However, healthcare HR software does not manage health care plans or health benefits for employees; such functionality is found in benefits administration software.
To qualify for inclusion in the Healthcare HR category, a product must:
Be leveraged by medical, clinical, or health care facilities and organizations
Optimize and automate the responsibilities of the medical or clinical human resources department
Comply with health care regulation, compliance measures, and industry standards
Provide visibility into and/or record and track medical personnel activities and information
