Your agency must verify that license applicants satisfy all requirements. What if your agency lacks the ability to track such information automatically? Unfortunately, the inability to track requirements sometimes results in unqualified applicants gaining approval, placing the public at risk and compromising your agency’s reputation. Imagine what might happen if your agency overlooked a failed background check and accidentally issued a medical license to an unqualified person. The right software can allow you to avoid such mistakes by tracking requirements automatically and accurately.
Processing applications creates opportunities for inefficiency and errors:
- Staff track requirements manually.
- Agency fails to track requirements thoroughly.
- Agency approves unqualified individuals.
- Process exposes agency to liability.
- Agency faces negative press.
- Public exposed to harm.
- Agency fails internal audits.
