WESTON, Fla., Nov. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ultimate Software , a leading provider of Web-based payroll and workforce management solutions, announced today that Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc., has chosen Ultimate Software’s UltiPro Workforce Management to improve its human capital analytics and management capabilities.
With approximately 3,000 employees, including more than 800 physicians and 325 advanced practitioners, Pediatrix Medical Group and its subsidiaries provide neonatal, maternal-fetal, and other pediatric subspecialty physician services in over 32 states. As its employee base has increased, bringing about a surge in business and workforce management complexity, Pediatrix determined that it was outgrowing the payroll service bureau solution it was using and began looking for an integrated HR/payroll solution to take workforce management operations to another level. The health-care provider selected Ultimate Software in June 2005.
“In addition to the heavy reporting requirements inherent in the health- care industry, we have a large workforce spread throughout the country and a very professional, credentialed team whose training and certifications must be tracked,” said Claire Fair, vice president of human resources for Pediatrix. “With Ultimate Software’s UltiPro, we plan to get a complete view of our workforce and manage information like never before. We’re very excited about automating many processes and adding more strategic value to the business by focusing on areas such as better trend and workforce metrics analyses.”
“Ultimate Software has approximately 100 organizations in the health-care field that are already enjoying UltiPro’s 600-plus standard and customizable reports for real-time trend analysis, metrics gathering, and compliance reporting,” said Greg Swick, senior vice president of sales for Ultimate Software. “We’re very happy to add Pediatrix to that list and look forward to working closely with the Pediatrix team to deliver the strategic value they’re seeking.”
