Bottom line

Applicant tracking system built only for hospitals and health systems, formerly HealthcareSource, used by more than 1,000 healthcare facilities. It handles requisitions, career sites, texting, scheduling, onboarding and reporting, with workflows for clinical, PRN, union and multi-site hiring. Pricing is quoted. Best for hospital HR and talent teams replacing a general-purpose ATS.

Stands out for: Workflows are built around how hospitals hire, including clinical versus non-clinical roles, PRN, union rules and multiple sites, which general ATSs make you configure yourself. Texting is built in, and the vendor reports a 45% text response rate against 8% for email. It connects to symplr Assessments for behavioral evaluation, a set the vendor positions for healthcare roles.

Watch out for: Pricing depends on size, volume and implementation scope, so expect an enterprise sales and implementation process. Integrations are described as HRIS, HCM, payroll and workforce systems without naming vendors, so confirm yours. Staffing agencies are better served by a staffing-specific ATS.
