Who is Nursa?

Nursa is a nationwide platform that exists to put a nurse at the bedside of every patient in need quickly and safely, removing the financial strain and operational gaps of traditional staffing methods.

Nursa’s real-time technology enables hospitals, health systems, skilled nursing facilities and community organizations to easily secure qualified, local nursing talent for per diem shifts.

The company streamlines the per diem process of filling shifts by connecting facilities directly to its network of available clinicians. Once a shift is posted, Nursa makes it immediately available to nurses and nursing assistants who can request to fill it.

“Tech such as Geo-location capabilities transformed the consumer experience and they are improving the experience of healthcare staffing. We are working with the HyperTrack team to add it to our experience.”

Business Need for Location Intelligence

Nursa is rapidly growing as the preferred platform for hospitals and other healthcare facilities to staff shifts across the United States. As CEO Curtis Anderson evaluated the entire lifecycle of hiring with the Nursa platform, three areas showed a compelling business need for adding location intelligence:

Pre-shift

Preemptively addressing no-call no-show (NCNS) and/or late arrival situations

  • As a facility scheduler, when I schedule a clinician, I need visual confirmation that they are on their way and will arrive and complete their shift on time.
  • As a clinician, when I’m scheduled on a shift, I need reminders to help me arrive on time.

On-shift

Accurate shift reporting — automating clock in/out, mediating disputes, and proof of work

  • As a clinician, when I start a shift, I need an easy way to confirm my arrival so I can get paid instantly.
  • As a clinician, when I complete a shift, I need an easy way to confirm my shift so I can get paid instantly.

Post-shift

Accurate payments that are fair to the facilities and clinicians

  • As a facility decision maker or AP contact, when I receive an invoice, I need data to ensure it is accurate.
  • As a clinician, I want to be paid as soon as possible for the shift, based on the hours worked.

The Nursa team engaged HyperTrack, the leading location intelligence solution provider for shift work marketplaces, for a six-week rapid onboarding program.

Joint Solution Architecture

Streamlining the Nursa Marketplace with Location Intelligence

The Nursa team is leveraging location intelligence from HyperTrack to improve fill rates by detecting No-Call No-Show (NCNS) sooner and backfilling with a nearby nurse or clinician. Impartial location data across the entire shift lifecycle lets Nursa pay clinicians based on the hours worked while giving facility managers complete visibility — minimizing payment disputes.

The team also looks forward to leveraging location data to predict NCNS with higher accuracy and roll out instant-pay solutions for the most reliable workers.
