“I am writing this letter of reference in support of Management Solution’s bid for on-site medical registry services network management provider for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. For the past 2 years, California Medical Facility (CMF) has experienced vacancies in approximately ⅓ of our physician/surgeon positions. This has resulted in significant challenges to our ability to provide timely care to our inmate-patient population. While we continue to aggressively interview for permanent civil servant physician/surgeons, we also began working more extensively with Management Solution. I have been impressed with their ability to provide short-term solutions to our staffing deficiencies. If not for the registry physicians and advanced practice professionals they identified, we would not have been able to continue meeting the needs of our inmate patient population. I would like to specifically mention the outstanding customer service that has been provided by Tabitha Ford, EVP of Management Solution. Ms. Ford is always responsive to both emails and telephone calls. She routinely keeps in touch with us to monitor for our potential staffing needs. She has diligently identified potential clinicians, and has done an excellent job at shepherding them through the process. It has been a pleasure working with Management Solution and their representative Tabitha Ford. I strongly support Management Solution’s bid to continue this contract with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.”
