What Nurse Staffing Agencies Really Think about Managed Service Providers

The staffing agencies that procure and provision the critical contingent nursing talent needed by hospitals and health systems are the lynchpins of successful recruitment in healthcare. Without them, hospitals would struggle to supply enough resources to ensure successful patient outcomes. However, for all their importance, they often play an almost secondary role in the process, shunted to the side by the Managed Service Providers (MSPs) that serve as go-betweens for hospitals looking for professional recruiters to handle this vital effort.
