Built around your organization
Support the workforce that cares for others.
Cushion is HIPAA compliant and supports healthcare employers with compensation planning, benefits administration, onboarding, and employee engagement. We can work alongside your internal HR team on a defined project or discuss a broader HR partnership.
Clinical, administrative, and operational teams have different roles but share a need for clear expectations and dependable employee support. As a healthcare organization changes, compensation, benefits communication, and manager practices need to stay connected. We help HR leaders organize that work around their people and priorities.
Who this support is for: Healthcare practices, provider organizations, healthcare networks, and administrative teams seeking employer HR support.
Your workforce priorities
Where clearer HR support can help.
Compensation across different responsibilities
Clinical and nonclinical roles need pay decisions that reflect their responsibilities and relevant comparisons. A clear compensation framework helps leaders discuss hiring, internal equity, and changing roles with a consistent basis.
Benefits employees can navigate
Employees need to understand where to go for enrollment, eligibility questions, and ongoing benefits support. Connecting administration with clear communication can reduce confusion for staff and the HR team.
An employee experience that reaches every team
Managers may work with people across departments, sites, and working patterns. Consistent onboarding and useful feedback help employees understand expectations while giving leaders a clearer picture of workforce concerns.
Relevant Cushion services
HR services for healthcare employers.
Connect the support you need today with the people practices your organization will need as it changes. These services can form an agreed project or a broader partnership.
Review selected clinical, administrative, or operational roles through an agreed compensation study. We help clarify responsibilities, compare relevant market information, and develop a practical basis for pay decisions and communication.
Give employees a clearer place to turn for benefit program questions. Cushion can coordinate enrollment, eligibility, administration, and communication while your organization retains control over benefit decisions.

Your industry provides context. Your internal capacity, priorities, and decision-making process shape the relationship. We agree on responsibilities, communication, and deliverables before work begins.
An ongoing HR partner
For employers without a full internal HR department, bring hiring, employee relations, policies, and manager guidance into a connected relationship. We discuss the people involved and the responsibilities your organization wants help managing.
For established departments, add experienced help for a workforce priority while your team stays involved in decisions. The work might focus on compensation, executive recruiting, performance systems, or employee engagement.
Begin with a clear question and a practical deliverable, such as a pay framework or benefits administration scope. Identify the roles, review points, and handoffs so the work fits your existing people processes and systems.
Scalable HR support starts with clear roles, repeatable onboarding, consistent documentation, and managers who know where to turn. We help connect those practices with your workforce plans. Agreed responsibilities and review points give your internal team a practical way to adapt the work as departments, locations, and priorities change.
A practical starting point
Reviewing compensation across a growing provider organization
A healthcare employer adding departments could begin with a defined compensation project. The work would clarify which roles need review, how current pay decisions are made, and what guidance managers need when discussing changes with employees.
Agree on the roles, responsibilities, and comparison criteria.
Review market information and the internal pay structure.
Develop a pay framework and a plan for manager communication.
Strategic workforce planning
What to bring to the first conversation.
Focus the first conversation on employer HR needs and the responsibilities already handled by your internal specialists. That keeps the scope clear across clinical operations, HR, benefits, and leadership.
Which sites, departments, and roles need attention?
Is the immediate priority compensation, onboarding, benefits, or employee feedback?
Who currently owns the related HR decisions?
What growth or organizational changes should the work account for?
Bring the materials you already use, such as role descriptions, onboarding plans, review forms, or benefits communication. You can describe the gaps without having every answer ready. We will discuss a useful starting point together.
