New KLAS report measures performance of talent management vendors

Report analyzes the integration and workflow of several solutions

Although the world is now dominated by mobile solutions and apps, healthcare providers still need the basics of system integration, an intuitive workflow, broad functionality and heightened vendor involvement. In a new report entitled "Talent Management 2015: Does Anyone Deliver a Developed, Broad, Integrated Suite?," KLAS evaluates whether any talent management (TM) vendors deliver a developed, broad and integrated suite.

In interviewing providers, KLAS found that HealthcareSource delivers a full suite of TM modules and is the only vendor in the report with validated widespread use of all of their offerings. Both Halogen and HealthcareSource customers report easy-to-use functionality, excellent support and seamless HRIS integration.

"We explored several areas of impact with talent management vendors in this report. We explored product development, delivery vs. the quality of vendors' business relationship, as well as the impact these solutions have on patient care and satisfaction," said Tanya Egbert, KLAS research director.

Elsevier and HealthcareSource scored highest in terms of the positive impact on patient care and satisfaction. Elsevier and HealthcareSource, along with HealthStream, are the three most frequently used vendors for learning management systems.
