Product Description:

Ringo is a healthcare-specific Managed Service Provider (MSP) and Vendor Management System (VMS) designed to help hospitals and health systems streamline contingent labor operations, improve staffing transparency, and reduce workforce costs. Founded in 2001, Ringo began as a hospital billing solution focused on eliminating administrative complexity. In 2020, the company launched its NextGen VMS—purpose-built for healthcare—to address growing challenges around contract labor management, vendor coordination, credentialing, and workforce compliance.

As a vendor-neutral MSP and VMS, Ringo empowers healthcare organizations with full visibility and control across every stage of the staffing lifecycle. Our platform centralizes job distribution, rate card management, credential tracking, and consolidated invoicing—giving clinical, HR, and finance teams a single source of truth for all workforce data. By eliminating manual processes and automating contract enforcement, Ringo helps reduce overbilling, enhance fill rates, and ensure every placement meets regulatory and credentialing standards.

Ringo supports healthcare facilities nationwide, managing more than $275 million in annual contingent labor spend and delivering measurable operational improvements. In the KLAS 2025 First Look Report, Ringo earned outstanding ratings—including 94.2 overall satisfaction and 100% of customers saying they would buy again—highlighting our ease of use, platform reliability, and high-touch service model.

Why Ringo Stands Out

Purpose-built for healthcare: Designed specifically for the complexities of hospitals, imaging centers, and health systems.

Vendor-neutral MSP model: Ensures transparency, eliminates vendor favoritism, and drives fair competition for higher quality placements.

AI-powered automation: Reduces manual tasks, accelerates time-to-fill, and improves shift coverage reliability.

Ringo’s mission has always been centered on clarity, transparency, and smarter workforce management. Whether a health system needs a fully managed MSP solution or a powerful vendor management platform to enhance its internal processes, Ringo delivers the tools and expertise to help organizations operate more efficiently and strategically.

Description:

Bee Well Pediatrics in El Paso Texas continually seeks to innovate and integrate in order to provide access and continuity of care. Bee Well Pediatrics implemented Rhinogram for its ability to reach and engage patients even at a distance, while also integrating into existing workflows and processes, and auto-populating the electronic health record systems to optimize and integrate with existing workflows. 

When a child gets sick or has an accident, time is of the essence. Parents want to get their children seen by a doctor without having to wait weeks for an appointment or miss an afternoon of work or school because of long wait times. 

In a study of 21 million outpatient visits, researchers found that more than one-fifth of doctor’s visits had wait times longer than 20 minutes and Medicaid patients were more likely to wait even longer. In El Paso, patients face the longest wait times in the country–just under 27 minutes. Across the nation in major and mid-sized metropolitan areas, scheduling a new patient appointment takes an average of 24 days to be seen.

For Bee Well El Paso Pediatrics, integrating Rhinogram means treatment can be provided to patients wherever they may be leading to better care and better patient experience.

Pediatric use cases:

The average a patient spends in a pediatric office is more than 2 hours for a 15-minute appointment. Pediatric systems like Bee Well can better cater to the needs of busy parents and caregivers with Rhinogram and reduce wait times through virtual care options for busy patients and those who do not need to be seen in person. Parents can interact with pediatric systems safely and securely to complete every task across the patient journey digitally: 

  • Initiate an SMS/MMS text message to the Pediatric system's main phone number to ask questions and initiate a new patient appointment without having to make a phone call. 
  • Receive, complete, and digital intake forms automatically from the system via SMS/MMS text link and can complete intake forms on their mobile device with as little as one bar of cell service, and without having to take the added step of logging into a portal, download an app, print out forms or complete them by hand. 
  • Receive appointment reminders and utilize self-service rescheduling.
  • Check in remotely, remain safely within a virtual waiting room, and receive instructions to go to their exam room on the day of the appointment. 
  • Message real-time with the administrative and care team and participate in virtual video care interactions vs in-person. 
  • Receive and reference aftercare instructions, initiate a text with follow-up questions, and follow-up appointments, receive ongoing education and campaign blasts, and complete payments via RhinoPay.
