Cost of Labor Study
For years, hospitals and facilities have often assumed that travel clinicians come at a higher cost. New national data shows that is not always the case- and in many situations, the opposite is true. A newly released 2026 Cost of Labor Study commissioned by NATHO and conducted independently by KPMG reveals that when all labor costs are considered- benefits, vacancies, overtime, and turnover - travel clinicians frequently cost less and permanent staff. The study reflects insights from 100 healthcare executives nationwide and arrives at a time when organizations continue to navigate workforce shortages, burnout and significant financial pressures. |
