WILLIAMSBURG, VA, UNITED STATES, August 21, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Intelliworx announced today it will exhibit at the 3RNET Annual Conference, held on August 26-27, 2025, in Reno, Nevada. The conference brings together healthcare professionals from business, government and academia to focus on solving the challenges of recruiting and retaining providers in underserved areas.

“There’s been a shortage of providers across

all of healthcare for a while now, but this problem hits rural healthcare communities even harder,” said Intelliworx Sales Director Patrick Youngblood, DBA, SPHR. “Medical students tend to stay in metropolitan areas where they trained, which leaves rural areas with a smaller pool of candidates – and it’s happening at a time when rural physicians are retiring at a rate faster than they can be replaced.”

While Intelliworx is better known for helping federal government agencies securely modernize workflow processes, the company discovered the challenges facing rural healthcare a few years ago through its extensive work with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The VA has many rural facilities and so faces the same challenges in attracting and retaining qualified providers.

The company has since poured resources into research and development. It hired subject matter experts, including Youngblood, who have spent much of their careers doing the job of recruiting providers to rural locations.

Youngblood, specifically, also wrote a doctoral dissertation (Doctor of Business Administration / DBA) on the challenges facing rural healthcare recruiting. To put it another way, the Intelliworx solution is designed by rural healthcare recruiters for rural healthcare recruiters.

Intelliworx launched the solution dubbed Healthcare Workforce Management two years ago. The company has continued to build out a rich set of features to enable healthcare recruiters to get organized and shorten the time it takes to fill provider positions.

More recently, Intelliworx also integrated real-time credentialing data into the solution. This includes data ranging from a national provider identifier (NPI) to recorded sanctions – enabling recruiters to get a comprehensive view of eligible candidates earlier in the recruiting process.

As a gold-level sponsor for the conference this year, Youngblood also penned a blog post published recently on the 3RNET blog titled, “Four simple but effective ideas for recruiting providers to rural healthcare.” The piece offers sage advice that healthcare recruiters can use – with or without the software – to ensure they are speaking to the motivations providers have said they find most appealing in a rural position.

“Rural healthcare employers have to ‘stop the bleeding’ – find ways to retain the existing providers they have on staff,” added Youngblood. “At the same time, they need to be building a pipeline of provider talent to rebuild their staffing levels.”

He added: “That starts with appealing to the less tangible but just as important benefits of a rural position – such as fulfilling the sense of purpose that initially calls so many people to the profession of medicine.”
