Temporary staffing without the pricing games

Cover the shift. Control the cost.

Your building may need temporary coverage.

That doesn’t mean you should accept a rate that changes every time the shift becomes harder to fill.

StaffHealth gives skilled nursing facilities flexible CNA, LPN and RN coverage with a simple 20% markup and no StaffHealth night, weekend or short-notice premium.

20% means 20%.

The clinician rate may change. StaffHealth’s markup does not.

Illustrative example. Provider rates vary by professional, state and shift. StaffHealth’s markup stays at 20% of the base staffing rate.

The old staffing playbook

They show you the rate. Then the shift gets complicated.

A staffing rate can look perfectly reasonable when you first see it.

  • Then the shift lands on a night.
  • Or a weekend.
  • Someone calls off.
  • You need coverage fast.
  • A holiday hits.

Suddenly the rate you budgeted for is no longer the number that matters.

Base rateThe number you approved
  1. Night differential
  2. Weekend premium
  3. Holiday premium
  4. Short-notice charge
  5. Urgent-fill incentive
  6. Overtime
  7. Platform / administrative fees
  8. Other rate multipliers
Final invoiceThe number finance sees

And sometimes they stack.

One adjustment may not look catastrophic.

But hundreds of temporary staffing hours multiplied across months—or across an entire portfolio—can turn small rate differences into serious money.

Your staffing shortage should not become someone else’s pricing opportunity.

Predictable economics

StaffHealth takes the opposite approach.

You set the clinician rate.

StaffHealth adds a fixed 20% markup to the base staffing rate.

That’s it.

  • No StaffHealth night differential.
  • No StaffHealth weekend premium.
  • No StaffHealth short-notice multiplier.

No pricing formula that becomes more expensive precisely when you have the least leverage.

From facility teams

When the schedule breaks, reliability is what matters.

A clinician works successfully at your building.

Your team recognizes the history.

You build familiarity.

The next staffing need does not always have to start from zero.

WorkWell Incentives

Reliability should earn more.

Getting someone interested in a shift is one thing. Building a marketplace of professionals who value reliability is another.

WorkWell Incentives rewards StaffHealth clinicians as they advance through four tiers, with the opportunity to earn up to $2 more per hour.

  1. Bronze
  2. Silver
  3. Gold
  4. Diamond

Up to +$2/hr

Example from WorkWell

In the WorkWell example, Maria worked 120 hours during the month, reached Diamond and earned an additional $240.

An accepted shift only matters if someone shows up.

WorkWell puts a financial incentive behind reliability—not just availability.

Already using an agency?

Don’t switch. Audit it first.

You don’t need to believe us.

And you don’t need to cancel anything.

Send StaffHealth one recent temporary-staffing invoice. We’ll break down what you’re actually paying and show you where visible premiums, fees, differentials and rate changes are affecting the effective hourly cost.

Then we’ll compare the numbers with StaffHealth.

What the audit gives you back

  • Effective hourly bill rate
  • Clinician type
  • Hours
  • Visible premiums and additional charges
  • StaffHealth equivalent
  • Estimated monthly variance
  • Estimated annual variance

If your current agency is giving you a great deal, the numbers should prove it.

If it isn’t, you’ll know exactly where to look.

No need to replace your current vendor. Just compare the numbers.

What staffing problem are you trying to solve?

Running one building?

I need coverage.

Staffing can go from manageable to shift-to-shift in a single call-off.

Use StaffHealth to post CNA, LPN and RN shifts, review who responds and choose who works your building.

Running multiple buildings?

I need control of agency spend.

Agency problems are rarely distributed evenly.

One building may barely use temporary labor. Another may be quietly driving a disproportionate share of the portfolio’s cost.

StaffHealth helps operators identify where temporary staffing pressure is concentrated and where the biggest financial opportunities may exist.

Illustrative. Agency reliance rarely sits where you expect it to.

Portfolio

One bad staffing pattern gets expensive. Twenty buildings make it a strategy problem.

A $5 hourly difference may feel small at one facility.

Across hundreds of hours, multiple buildings and twelve months, it becomes a number ownership cares about.

You don’t need to audit every building first.

Start with one invoice.

If the numbers suggest a larger problem, StaffHealth can help evaluate the broader portfolio.

StaffHealth Intelligence

Don’t just fill the gap. Understand where the pressure is coming from.
