How WorkUp Health partners with health systems to bolster their educational outreach programs

Ongoing healthcare workforce shortages have prompted hospitals and health systems to expand educational and internship programs to better engage young people in pursuing careers in healthcare. For the past two weeks, Gist Healthcare Daily has highlighted initiatives underway at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio to attract high school students to the healthcare industry. Today, host J. Carlisle Larsen speaks with Zach Fleitman, founder and CEO of Workup Health, to learn more about how the talent pipeline management platform works with health systems– including University Hospitals– to help them track and evaluate the impact of their youth outreach programs.
