New partnership with Branch unlocks flexible, instant pay for healthcare market, with automated options to meet market demand for same-day pay
HOUSTON – April 17, 2024 – symplr®, a leading provider of enterprise healthcare operations software, today announced a new partnership integrating award-winning healthcare worker payments technology from Branch, a workforce payments platform. With the integrated pay solution, the symplr Contingent Talent Management (CTM) platform offers healthcare staffing firms seamless, automated options with free, same-day payments to workers.
Healthcare staffing firms are now expected to offer same-day payment processing to compete for talent amidst workforce challenges. But both staffing firms and healthcare workers continue to be frustrated by complicated payroll systems, inaccurate payroll records, and delays in how quickly workers can access earned wages. By combining timecard data and payroll processing workflows, symplr has made it easier for healthcare companies to deliver instant payments to compensate employees for daily hours worked.
“We partnered with Branch due to their deep experience, real-time payment solutions, and reputation for customer service,” said Karissa Fuller, Managing Director, Senior Vice President of Workforce Management at symplr. “Our partnership helps deliver a smooth implementation process, ongoing support for employers, and an engaging payment experience for employees.”
“Branch is passionate about creating more flexible, seamless payments experiences for both businesses and their workers, and our integration with symplr does just that,” said Branch CEO Atif Siddiqi. “Staffing firms get an easier way to offer a critical benefit while employees get a faster, smoother way to receive their earnings for free. We’re excited to become symplr CTM’s first certified payments partner and enhance the platform’s wide array of configurable tools for recruiting, onboarding, and managing top healthcare talent.”
