We Understand The Specific Needs Of Healthcare Institutions
EBI has the knowledge and expertise to guide you through the ever-changing requirements of healthcare background screening. We assist hospitals, nursing facilities, assisted living communities and healthcare staffing firms develop strategies to meet their unique hiring needs.
EBI has developed comprehensive best practices, which enable employers in the healthcare field to meet compliance requirements, protect themselves from liability and gain the most return on investment (ROI) from their screening program. A solid screening program represents proper due diligence and protects healthcare entities from negligent hiring litigation.
EBI recommends that a comprehensive background check be conducted on all healthcare employees, including entry-level and temporary staff positions and in accordance with state and federal law. A search of county, state and national database records and sex offender registries should be conducted on all candidates. We offer federal exclusion databases such as OIG/GSA along with exclusionary databases searches through FACIS. EBI also offers services to verify education credentials and past employment history along with the verification of medical licenses with State Licensing Boards or State Registries. EBI also offer services to augment any Credential Verification Office (CVO) program to insure full compliance with federal and state laws.
Lab Based Medical Professional Testing
