Corra Group Prepares for New Round of Hiring in the Healthcare Industry

Corra Group is prepping for a new round of hiring in the Healthcare Industry, now that the Republican Party has failed to repeal the Affordable Care Act, also known as “Obamacare.” The El Segundo, California headquartered background screening service believe that despite all the uncertainty on the part of the healthcare insurers, as expressed in a recent Wall Street Journal Article, the survival of the ACA will lead to renewed hiring on national and regional levels.

“Hiring within the Healthcare Industry has mainly been on hold for this past year,” said Corra Group Co-Founder, Nick Gustavson. “With all the indecision, our healthcare clients were reluctant to move forward with new employment.

“But now there has been resolution, concerning the Affordable Care Act,” said Gustavson. “We are preparing for a new surge of hiring and with it an increase in employment screening for the different channels in the medical sector.”

Gustavson pointed out that Corra Group offer a full range of background checks for its clients in need of conducting background checks in the healthcare industry. He noted that Corra Group offers a comprehensive healthcare employment screening package that can be ordered in its entirety or with different searches ordered a la carte.

“We have much experience with background checks in the healthcare industry,” said Gustavson. We can conduct everything from criminal checks, to the FACIS Level 3 Healthcare sanctions, to drug testing, and international education verification and criminal searches.

Corra Group is Offering Healthcare Sanctions and Background Checks for Non-Healthcare Businesses Working in Hospitals

Corra Group is advancing its marketing practices to target IT and tech groups and other businesses that are non-healthcare related but servicing Hospitals and other Medical Facilities. The El Segundo, California based Employment Screening Service is targeting non-healthcare related companies working in the medical industry.

“We want businesses to know that they can come to us for any types of background checks that will help keep them compliant with the standards of the medical industry,” said Corra Group Co-Founder, Nick Gustavson. “You don’t have to be a directly related medical entity to need the types of background checks that will keep you compliant, allowing your staff to enter hospitals and other medical facilities.

“Compliance standards for medical workers impact a lot of other industries that you normally wouldn’t consider,” said Gustavson. “Everything from IT and technology workers upgrading a hospitals software to the driver delivering sodas to the commissary have to pass certain types of background checks. Healthcare sanctions searches are one of the most important. Because a medical facility can lose is government funding, its ability to invoice, and can be subjected to a variety of criminal and civil actions if they allow people on the sanctions list to work in their facilities. It is a very big deal.”

Corra Group Prepares to Implement the New Electronic Drug Collection Form for Its Trucking Clients

Corra Group is preparing to implement the new electronic Chain of Custody Form for its trucking and transportation drivers. The new CCF will allow trucking companies to dispense with the more traditional five-part paper custody and control forms that have been the standard and streamline operations with an online ordering system for DOT mandated drug tests.

As evidenced on its website, The Department of Transportation, last year, published a Final Rule on April 13, 2015 allowing employers, collectors, laboratories and Medical Review Officers (MROs) to use electronic Custody and Control Forms for their drug testing,” said Corra Group Co-Founder, Gordon Basichis. This is a major breakthrough as the electronic CCF collects and transmits the same employer, donor, collector, MRO and specimen information as the traditional paper forms. The eCCF’s use an electronic, online process that simplifies the procedure.

“In the past, getting the driver a paper Custody and Control Form could be difficult if the driver was on the road or working remotely,” said Basichis. “You had to overnight or snail mail, something costly and deliberate to assure he was DOT compliant went he went in for his drug test. With the online system, you will be able create an electronic CCF and email it to him. Very simple.”

Basichis noted that Corra Group is eager to offer the electronic DOT drug testing system as soon as it comes online. He said he was told by Corra Group’s partners at Quest Diagnostics that implementation could be expected shortly and that the final phase was assuring that the drug collection sites could accommodate the eCFF form.
