Clinical One Signs Agreement With VHA Inc.

Wakefield, MA - After extensive review, VHA Inc. has named Clinical One, a division of Vedior North America LLC, as supplier for travel health care staffing services nationwide, as well as per-diem staffing services in the New England area. The contract was signed on July 15, 2007.

VHA is a health care provider alliance that serves more than 1,400 not-for-profit hospitals nationwide. VHA helps its members by offering supply chain management services and promoting and supporting regional networks that enable members to connect to solve common operational and clinical challenges.

VHA goes through a rigorous screening, application and approval process for any organization that hopes to win a contract to provide services to its members. VHA typically chooses only one or two vendors for each of their service offerings. The agreement with VHA confirms Clinical One's reputation for providing superior customer service and quality healthcare professionals.

Clinical One offers travel, case management, per-diem and direct hire staffing services to hospitals and health care facilities in need of Registered Nurses and Allied Health Care Professionals nationwide. Clinical One's travel and per-diem offerings were put through VHA's highly involved screening process and were selected by VHA based on the superior service they continuously demonstrate to their client base.

"We are honored to have been chosen as one of the few staffing service providers VHA has endorsed on a national scale," commented Greg Coir, co-founder and president. "Clinical One currently provides health care staffing services to a number of VHA member facilities, and we look forward to servicing a broader range of VHA members in the future. Clinical One and VHA share a common mission to improve the level of patient care within these not- for-profit facilities, while helping to enhance their economic and operational performance as well. That shared mission makes this agreement a natural extension of our existing services to VHA members."
