Frequently asked questions
1. What exactly does TableWin Advisory Group do?
We help hospitals reduce external staffing costs by renegotiating agency, MSP, and vendor contracts. Our focus is on the operational terms most organizations overlook across all aspects of healthcare staffing.
Before starting TableWin, we worked inside healthcare staffing selling and negotiating these same contracts with hospitals. Now we sit on the hospital's side of the table.
2. What kind of cost savings do hospitals typically see?
Most hospitals see 15-25% reductions in agency staffing costs, with some engagements exceeding that depending on contract structure and MSP design. We provide a realistic estimate during the free evaluation.
3. How do you structure your fees? Are there any upfront costs?
No upfront costs. Our fee structure is a 100% shared savings model. We earn a percentage of verified savings.
4. What if you don't achieve any savings?
You pay nothing. There is zero financial risk to your organization.
5. What does your engagement process look like?
Four steps, with the hospital team maintaining approval authority throughout:
- Free contract evaluation - no obligation
- Agreement on engagement scope & current usage benchmarks
- TableWin negotiates with the agency
- Fees tied to documented savings
6. How long does a typical engagement take?
Most engagements are completed within 2–6 weeks, depending on responsiveness from hospital and agency teams.
7. How much time is required from the relevant hospital stakeholders?
Typically 2–3 hours upfront, ad hoc check-ins as needed, and then final approval on negotiated terms.
8. Can you help if we're mid-contract, or only at renewal?
Both. Renewals provide strong leverage, but renegotiating mid-contract is just as effective.
9. Will renegotiating affect our current staffing levels or agency relationships?
No. We focus on contract structure and financial terms - not access to clinicians. Our approach strengthens long-term agency partnerships while improving economics.
