Regional health system with 526 providers across 115 care sites in Mid-Michigan
University of Michigan Health-Sparrow operates a large, multi-site healthcare network anchored in Epic Systems and administrative tools (Workday, Oracle, UKG) typical of mid-to-large hospital systems. The hiring profile is heavily weighted toward clinical roles (425 of 497 open positions), with a long tail of junior positions, reflecting persistent staffing pressure across patient-facing operations. Pain points cluster around revenue cycle, compliance (340B, OIG, continuity-of-care), and care-registry gaps—operational constraints that limit margin expansion even as the organization scales.
