Summary
Trust in healthcare is built on a workforce that reflects the diversity of the patient population, yet current statistics show a significant lack of representation among healthcare professionals, with only 38% of physicians being female and even fewer identifying as non-White. Addressing this disparity requires organizations to invest in diverse talent pipelines and consider a contingent workforce model, which can improve access to local talent and enhance patient care. To effectively implement this model, healthcare organizations should develop strategies that promote collaboration between contingent and full-time employees while leveraging talent intelligence metrics to identify areas for workforce improvement.
