Who is Nursa?
Nursa is a nationwide platform that exists to put a nurse at the bedside of every patient in need quickly and safely, removing the financial strain and operational gaps of traditional staffing methods.
Nursa’s real-time technology enables hospitals, health systems, skilled nursing facilities and community organizations to easily secure qualified, local nursing talent for per diem shifts. Nursa helps healthcare facilities fill short-term staffing shifts with clinicians who look for flexibility.
The company streamlines the per diem process of filling shifts by connecting facilities directly to its network of available clinicians. Once a shift is posted, Nursa makes it immediately available to nurses and nursing assistants who can then request to fill the shift. Facility directors can then review all interested clinicians and schedule the one that fits their needs.

Business Need for Location Intelligence in Nursa Platform
Nursa is rapidly growing as the preferred platform for hospitals and other healthcare facilities to hire nurses and clinicians to staff shifts across the United States. Nursa’s CEO, Curtis Anderson, was named one of the “Top 50 Leaders Shaping the Gig Economy” for creating the leading marketplace for connecting nurses and nursing assistants with facilities. As Curtis evaluated the entire lifecycle of hiring with the Nursa platform, three areas showed the compelling business need for adding location intelligence to improve business outcomes:
Pre-shift: Preemptively addressing no-call no-show (NCNS) and/or late arrival situations (notifying facilities and ops in advance, allowing more time to find a potential replacement)
As a facility scheduler, when I schedule a clinician, I need visual confirmation that they are on their way and will arrive and complete their shift on time.
As a clinician, when I’m scheduled on a shift, I need reminders to help me arrive on time.
On-shift: Accurate shift reporting (automating clock in/out, mediating clinician/facility shift report disputes, resolving facility inquiries and invoice complaints, “proof of work”)
As a clinician, when I start a shift, I need an easy way to confirm my arrival so I can get paid instantly.
As a clinician, when I complete a shift, I need an easy way to confirm my shift so I can get paid instantly.
Post-shift: Accurate payments that are fair to the facilities and clinicians:
As a facility decision maker or accounts payable contact, when I receive an invoice, I need data to ensure that it is accurate (e.g., a way to compare invoice line items against facility time tracking data and/or a trusted time tracking data feed from Nursa).
As a clinician, I want to be paid as soon as possible for the shift, based on the hours worked.
The Nursa team engaged HyperTrack, the leading location intelligence solution provider for shift work marketplaces, for a six-week rapid onboarding program.

Streamlining the Nursa marketplace operations with Location Intelligence
The Nursa team is excited and looking forward to leveraging location intelligence from HyperTrack to improve the fill rates by detecting No-Call No-Show (NCNS) sooner and acting on those to provide backfill with a nearby nurse or clinician. Having access to impartial location data for the entire shift lifecycle empowers the Nursa team to pay the nurses and nurse assistants based on the hours worked while ensuring that facility managers have complete visibility of the shift workers, minimizing the payment disputes due to differences in the hours worked.
The Nursa team also looks forward to leveraging location data to predict NCNS with higher accuracy and roll out instant pay solutions for workers with the highest reliability ratings.
