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.

Real-time workforce analytics: Gives leaders actionable insights on vendor performance, labor spend, credentialing compliance, and staffing trends.

Operational and financial impact: Clients typically achieve 15–20% cost savings, faster onboarding, fewer errors, and stronger vendor accountability.

End-user–focused design: Intuitive workflows built for clinicians, staffing offices, recruiters, and finance teams alike.

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.

About Ringo VMS - The People Technology®:

Ringo began in 2001—not as a staffing platform, but as a hospital billing solution dedicated to simplifying complex administrative workflows. From the start, our mission has been to help healthcare organizations solve operational challenges with clarity and precision. Over the years, as hospitals faced growing pressure to manage contingent labor, multiple staffing vendors, and credentialing compliance, we evolved to meet that need.

By listening closely to our clients, Ringo launched its NextGen Vendor Management System (VMS) in 2020—purpose-built for healthcare. Our vendor-neutral, AI-powered platform enables hospitals, health systems, and physician groups to optimize their workforce while maintaining full control and visibility over every staffing decision.

Today, Ringo supports healthcare systems nationwide—managing over $275 million in contingent labor spend annually. We provide real-time workforce analytics, credential alerts, and automated invoice accuracy tools that ensure compliance, transparency, and measurable cost savings.

What makes Ringo stand apart is more than technology—it’s partnership. We operate as an extension of your team, providing consultative support, MSP options, and customizable workflows to fit your organization’s goals. From shift optimization and rate enforcement to digital timekeeping and automated job distribution, every feature is designed to drive efficiency, reduce time-to-fill, and improve patient care continuity.

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

None provided

Differentiators vs Competitors:

None provided

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Fully interoperable with any nurse scheduling system

Enables health system to create their own internal agency

Differentiators vs Competitors:
  • ShiftMed uses a W2 workforce instead of a 1099 workforce, which means that the healthcare professionals who work with ShiftMed are considered employees, rather than independent contractors. By using a W2 workforce, ShiftMed is able to provide a higher level of support and stability for its healthcare professionals, and assumes the risk for its health system partners.

  • ShiftMed integrates with UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group), a workforce management and human capital management software, to provide a seamless experience for healthcare facilities and professionals. The integration allows healthcare facilities using UKG to access ShiftMed's platform and book qualified healthcare professionals directly from within the UKG platform. This helps to simplify the staffing process for healthcare facilities, enabling them to manage their workforce more efficiently and effectively.

  • ShiftMed has partnered with Uber Health to provide reliable and efficient transportation for healthcare professionals using the ShiftMed platform. Uber Health is a HIPAA-compliant transportation solution that enables healthcare providers to order rides for their patients and employees. Through the partnership, ShiftMed healthcare professionals can use Uber Health to get to and from their shifts at healthcare facilities, ensuring that they arrive on time and are able to provide high-quality care to their patients.
