Healthcare staffing provider Aya Healthcare’s Qualivis subsidiary acquired the temporary staffing division of the New Mexico Hospital Association’s Hospital Services Corp. The deal was expected to close June 1.

“As hospitals faced workforce challenges due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we’re thrilled to join Qualivis to provide our members with robust software and services to increase healthcare system access to temporary staffing any time they need it,” said Erika Campos, president of New Mexico Hospital Services Corp.

The Hospital Services Corp. began its operations to offer services to New Mexico Hospital Association member hospitals. It has since begun serving a broader range of healthcare customers including health plans, physician offices, medical clinics and businesses outside the healthcare industry.

“Our focus is to fill critical gaps to deliver high-quality healthcare to communities in need,” Qualivis President Sherry Kolb said. “We’re excited to welcome NMHA and provide its members with a suite of workforce solutions to drive staffing efficiencies, provide quality candidates and increase savings.” 

With the addition of NMHA, Qualivis has relationships with 26 state hospital and healthcare associations.
