SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GoodTime (goodtime.io), a leading provider of AI-powered scheduling software, proudly announces the achievement of HIPAA/HITECH Type 1 Compliance. With this certification, GoodTime empowers more healthcare organizations to fill roles faster in the face of a healthcare labor shortage by utilizing Hire, the company’s flagship interview scheduling platform.
Addressing the Healthcare Labor Shortage
Amidst a severe shortage of health aides, nurses, physicians, and other healthcare professionals, GoodTime's HIPAA certification brings a timely solution to hiring teams in the healthcare industry. Consulting firm Mercer projects a shortage of over 400,000 home health aides and 29,400 nurse practitioners by 2025. The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) predicts a potential shortage of up to 122,000 physicians by 2032. This scarcity of healthcare professionals has intensified the competition for talent, making it crucial to fill open roles quickly to meet the needs of healthcare companies and the patients they serve.
Enhanced Possibilities with GoodTime’s HIPAA Certification
Healthcare organizations are already bound to strict HIPAA guidelines for any systems that directly handle sensitive patient information. As an extra measure of security for all protected health information (PHI), many of these organizations strive to only use HIPAA-compliant systems, even when those systems don’t directly interface with patients.
GoodTime's certification is a significant milestone that re-affirms the company's commitment to healthcare companies and sets them apart as the only interview scheduling provider that is HIPAA-compliant. By adhering to the highest industry standards for data security and privacy, GoodTime helps healthcare talent acquisition teams streamline and automate their hiring workflows, minimize resource requirements, and fill roles faster in the midst of the labor shortage.
Ahryun Moon, GoodTime Co-Founder and CEO, expressed enthusiasm about the recent HIPAA certification, highlighting its importance for healthcare organizations. Moon stated, "We are thrilled to have obtained the HIPAA certification, as it strengthens our dedication to healthcare organizations during this challenging time. With secure, automated, and efficient scheduling, healthcare hiring teams can fill open positions swiftly, without all the manual work, and ultimately deliver exceptional care to patients."
