On Feb 26, 2025 Company launches industry-first AI-powered marketplace for permanent technicians and expands beyond acute employers, helping health systems hire faster, reduce costs, and build a more sustainable workforce Incredible Health , the largest AI-powered career marketplace for permanent healthcare workers, announced a major expansion: building on its success with over 1 million U.S. nurses and 1,500 U.S. hospitals, it will now streamline hiring for permanent technicians, and extend its reach into Home Health organizations and Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs). With technicians making up 60% of the healthcare workforce and facing growing shortages, Incredible Health is now the first marketplace dedicated to helping these professionals find permanent roles and fulfilling careers. This expansion is a critical step in advancing Incredible Health’s vision of helping healthcare professionals live better lives and its mission to help healthcare professionals find and do their best work—while expanding career opportunities for millions of healthcare professionals nationwide. The inclusion of Home Health and ASCs alongside acute care hospitals brings Incredible Health’s award-winning platform to a wider group of health facilities, enabling them to hire in 20 days or less and save $5 million per facility by reducing premium labor, overtime costs, and HR costs. The Next Healthcare Workforce Crisis: Technicians Technician shortages are emerging as a healthcare crisis, much like the nursing shortage of 2021, with an estimated shortfall of over 3.2 million allied healthcare workers in the U.S. by 2026. Hospital labor costs have increased by 21% since the pandemic, and year-over-year labor expenses rose by 10% from 2023 to 2024. Technician shortages not only strain healthcare providers’ budgets due to reliance on temporary labor, but also lead to delays in imaging, surgical procedures, and emergency care, ultimately impacting patient outcomes. By expanding its platform to support technicians, Incredible Health is addressing this challenge head-on. Prioritizing permanent roles reduces costs, ensures consistent care, drives growth and expansion, and helps future-proof operations, enabling health systems to deliver timely care and better manage workforce budgets. Technicians can access the platform for free to plan and manage their careers and find their dream roles. Currently available in nine states including California, New York, and Texas, the technician marketplace will roll out nationally by the end of 2025. Innovative Solutions for Expanding into New Employers By expanding beyond hospitals, Incredible Health is transforming hiring for Home Health organizations and ASCs, helping them reduce reliance on costly temporary labor and save millions per facility per year. Already trusted by 15 Home Health organizations and 50 ASCs, the platform creates more career opportunities for nurses and technicians in a range of settings, helping them find roles that align with their preferences, skills, and goals. This ensures that a wider range of employers can efficiently hire the qualified professionals they need to meet rising demand, reduce turnover, and improve patient care: Home Health organizations – With employment in home health expected to grow by 21% over the next decade, demand for skilled professionals is surging. Incredible Health now connects organizations with over 200,000 nurses seeking permanent home health positions, providing healthcare professionals with fulfilling career options and health systems with faster, more reliable hiring. Nurses hired at Home Health organizations through Incredible Health have, on average, 8 years of experience—a critical factor in home health, where nurses often work independently. Greater experience ensures high-quality, consistent care, improving patient outcomes and reducing hospital readmissions. Ambulatory Surgery Centers – ASCs are experiencing a boom in surgical volume, with outpatient surgeries expected to increase by 18% by 2033, but 70% of ASCs report difficulty hiring operating room nurses, and 65% struggle to find surgical technologists. Staff shortages cause delays, cancellations, and lost revenue. With a network of over 1 million healthcare professionals, including over 500,000 nurses interested in ASC roles, Incredible Health helps ASCs secure experienced talent. Nurses hired at ASCs through Incredible Health average 12 years of experience. “We’ve seen firsthand the challenges faced by nurses, and we’re now applying those lessons to the growing crisis of technician shortages—circumstances that many of our health system partners have compared to the nursing crisis of 2021,” said Iman Abuzeid MD, CEO and Co-founder of Incredible Health. “At the same time, our expansion into home health and ASCs is not just about faster hiring and cost reduction—it’s about helping nurses and technicians build meaningful, long-term careers in settings best suited to them. This is a major step forward in our mission to help healthcare workers live better lives.” Incredible Health’s marketplace is trusted by over 1 million U.S. nurses and 1,500 hospitals. With its expansion to technicians, ASCs, and home health, the company is poised to create an even bigger impact in healthcare in 2025 and beyond.
