Case Study: Priority Hospital Group achieves near-real-time labor visibility and 90% faster reporting with APS Payroll's API

Priority Hospital Group Case Study [API Focus]

Priority Hospital Group (PHG) is a seven‑hospital healthcare system of about 800 employees that was struggling with shift‑based staffing and rising labor costs. Traditional payroll reports arrived weeks late, leaving hospital leaders unable to course‑correct in real time or track metrics like hours and dollars per patient per day across departments and roles.

PHG implemented APS payroll and its open API to build a custom daily dashboard called “The Pillars,” pulling live, mid‑shift data on clocked hours, pay rates, department assignments and skill mix (e.g., RN vs. LPN). The automated solution cut turnaround time by an estimated 90%, eliminated manual reporting and IT dependence, enabled mass salary pulls, and delivered actionable insights for proactive staffing and cost decisions across all seven hospitals.
