Why Open Shift Management (OSM) Matters?

Traditional VMS and MSP models react after schedules break, driving premium pay and overtime. Open shift management proactively addresses coverage gaps during the self-scheduling window, before they become costly problems.

OSM gives leaders early visibility into demand and routes open shifts to the right mix of internal and local, on-demand clinicians. Engaging flexible clinicians through an intuitive self-scheduling app expands workforce flexibility without disrupting existing systems.

In a tightening reimbursement environment, reactive models erode margin. Open shift management creates shift-level transparency and intentional coverage routing—unlocking measurable, scalable savings.
