Built for Healthcare Staffing Firms
Healthcare staffing operates under pressures most other verticals don’t face. Encore is built to solve the specific challenges that strain cash flow and operations for medical staffing agencies.
Healthcare workers expect weekly pay. Hospital systems take 45–90 days to settle invoices. Encore closes that gap every single week so your workers get paid and your agency keeps running.
Credentialing delays placement and revenue. Encore’s invoicing team uses software built specifically for healthcare staffing, so billing keeps pace with your placements and gets done correctly.
High bill rates mean large outstanding invoices and large working capital requirements. Encore advances up to 90% of invoice value so you can cover payroll and operations while facilities process payment.
A new contract or surge in demand can double placement volume overnight. Encore’s funding scales with your invoice volume so you can say yes to new business without worrying whether capital can keep up.
Flexible Funding & Operational Support
Gain an entire team of payroll, tax, invoicing, and software experts, without adding headcount. Encore’s full-service option handles every back-office function so you stay focused on sourcing and placing great healthcare workers.

Healthcare Staffing FAQs
Starting a home health agency involves researching state licensing and certification requirements, developing a business plan with financial projections, hiring qualified RNs, CNAs, and therapists, securing office space and equipment, and building relationships with healthcare providers and insurers. Funding payroll early is critical—home health clients often take weeks to pay, while staff expect weekly payment. Invoice factoring is a common solution for new home health agencies.
Starting a dental staffing agency requires researching your state’s licensing requirements, building a business plan, and recruiting qualified dental hygienists, assistants, and front-office staff. Cash flow is an early challenge, as dental providers often pay invoices on a delayed schedule while dental temps are typically paid weekly. Invoice factoring is a practical solution that many dental staffing agencies use from the start.
Starting a medical staffing agency involves researching local healthcare facility needs, building a solid business plan, obtaining the required licenses, and developing relationships with both healthcare professionals and facilities. Investing in payroll technology and working capital solutions early—such as invoice factoring—is essential, as healthcare clients typically pay on extended terms while workers require timely weekly payment.
If your healthcare staffing agency is paying workers weekly while waiting 30 to 90 days for hospital or facility payments, payroll financing is almost certainly a fit. It’s not a loan and no hard collateral required and or debt are added to your balance sheet. The best way to evaluate whether it’s right for your specific situation is to schedule a consultation with Encore’s team.
