How the score works

What matters for healthcare

  1. License and credential verification

    Clinical roles depend on valid licenses.

  2. Exclusion list and sanctions checks

    Organizations that bill government programs often screen against exclusion lists.

  3. Ongoing monitoring options

    Credentials and records can change after hire, and monitoring needs separate authorization.

  4. Fast turnaround at volume

    Staffing needs are continuous.
