ShiftMed and UKG Streamline Scheduling and Lower Healthcare Facility Costs

On January 19, 2023, ShiftMed, an on-demand workforce platform providing labor across the healthcare system, announced a technology partnership with UKG, a provider of payroll, HR, and workforce management solutions.

With this partnership, companies using ShiftMed and UKG Dimensions can access ShiftMed’s 350,000+ contract workers within UKG and schedule all personnel using a single system. With ShiftMed and UKG, when a ShiftMed healthcare professional claims a facility’s open shift, that credentialed worker is automatically added as an employee within UKG and assigned to the schedule. This removes the need for a UKG Dimensions administrator to enter employee data or update the schedule manually.

UKG solutions are built on the FleX platform. FleX by UKG is an advanced technology platform specifically designed to support workplaces. FleX Flow, a versatile API framework, anchors UKG solutions in the workflow where people require them the most. It enables businesses to connect established IT with emerging applications to enhance the workplace.

Mike May, Vice President of the Tech Partner Program at UKG, said, “At UKG, we strive to create lifelong partnerships with our customers, helping them create modern people experiences to drive better business outcomes and anticipate employee needs beyond just work.” He adds, “By cultivating a highly engaged ecosystem of technology partners, including ShiftMed, we’re able to help create a more seamless and empowering technology experience.”
