TEMPE, Ariz., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The U.S. economy is expected to continue to expand over the rest of 2026, say the nation’s purchasing and supply executives in the Spring 2026 ISM Supply Chain Planning Forecast (formerly known as the Spring ISM Semiannual Economic Forecast). Expectations for the remainder of 2026 are higher than those expressed in December 2025. The U.S. economy continues to successfully battle the headwinds posed by trade issues, continued inflation concerns, and geopolitical uncertainty.

These projections are part of the forecast issued by Institute for Supply Management® (ISM®) Business Survey panelists. The forecast was presented today by Susan Spence, MBA, Chair of the ISM Manufacturing Business Survey Committee, and Steve Miller, CPSM, CSCP, Chair of the ISM Services Business Survey Committee.

Manufacturing Summary
Revenue for 2026 is expected to increase, on average, by 8.4 percent. This is 4 percentage points higher than the December 2025 forecast of 4.4 percent, and 5.9 percentage points higher than the 2.5 percentage point year-over-year increase reported for 2025. Eighty-two percent of respondents say that revenues for 2026 will increase, on average, 12.7 percent compared to 2025. Seventeen percent say revenues will decrease (12 percent, on average), and zero percent indicate no change. With an operating rate of 86.9 percent, a projected 4.9 percent increase in capital expenditures, a 14.1-percent increase in prices paid for raw materials and a marginal (1.4 percent) increase in employment expected by the end of 2026, the manufacturing sector will continue to grow through 2026. “With 14 manufacturing industries expecting revenue growth and seven industries expecting employment growth in 2026, panelists forecast a healthy rest of the year. Sentiment in each industry was generally consistent with performance reports in the May 2026 Manufacturing ISM® PMI® Reports, as well as the fall ISM Supply Chain Planning Forecast released in December,” says Spence.

New concierge-style housing search service helps staffing agencies and recruiters secure customized housing options faster for their travelers and provide an overall better placement experience—at no cost.

DELRAY BEACH, Fla., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Vidle Housing, the industry’s only marketplace dedicated to providing mid-term furnished housing for healthcare travelers, today announced the launch of VidleConnect™, a personalized housing solution designed to help healthcare travelers, recruiters, and staffing agencies find and secure housing more efficiently for healthcare assignments across the United States. Through VidleConnect, recruiters and staffing agencies can generate customized housing reports and requests on behalf of clinicians to help simplify the relocation process and improve the overall assignment experience. VidleConnect is available immediately and is offered at no cost to staffing agencies.

Finding suitable housing remains one of the most common challenges healthcare travelers face when preparing for a new assignment. Travel nurses, allied healthcare professionals, therapists, physicians, and other clinicians often spend hours searching multiple websites, contacting hosts, comparing locations, and verifying availability—all while preparing for a new role and relocation.

VidleConnect was created to simplify that process.

Rather than requiring travelers to search independently through hundreds of listings, VidleConnect provides a customized housing search experience for healthcare staffing firms. Once a report is generated by the healthcare staffing recruiter on behalf of their traveler, the Vidle Housing team works directly with travelers to identify housing options that best fit their assignment, commute preferences, budget, lifestyle, pet requirements, family needs, and other personal considerations.

Leveraging Vidle Housing’s growing nationwide inventory of furnished rentals and housing partners, VidleConnect delivers curated housing recommendations designed to help travelers find housing more quickly and confidently. The result is a more efficient and personalized experience that helps travelers spend less time searching and more time preparing for their next assignment, while enabling recruiters to focus on supporting their clinicians and filling open positions.

“Healthcare staffing agencies and recruiters work incredibly hard to place clinicians in assignments across the country, but housing often becomes one of the biggest barriers to a successful placement,” said Randy Holloran, Chief Executive Officer of Vidle.

“VidleConnect helps remove that barrier by providing a personalized housing search experience that supports travelers, recruiters, and staffing firms alike. When travelers can secure housing quickly and confidently, agencies can improve their overall assignment experience, reduce housing-related placement challenges, and focus on what they do best, connecting healthcare professionals with the facilities that need them. Our goal is to make housing simpler, faster, and more accessible for everyone involved in the healthcare travel journey. By offering VidleConnect as a free service, we’re removing barriers and helping travelers and staffing firms access the housing support they need when they need it.”

Supporting Recruiters and Healthcare Staffing Agencies

Housing challenges can delay assignment starts, create unnecessary stress for travelers, and in some cases contribute to assignment cancellations. VidleConnect provides recruiters with a trusted housing resource they can introduce to their candidates, helping simplify one of the most important aspects of assignment preparation.

Benefits for staffing agencies and recruiters include:

Improved traveler satisfaction and retentionReduced assignment fallout due to housing challengesFaster housing identification for travelersSupport for hard-to-fill and last-minute assignmentsLess recruiter time spent assisting with housing searchesEnhanced candidate experience throughout the placement processAccess to a dedicated housing resource backed by Vidle Housing’s nationwide network of furnished accommodations

By combining personalized housing assistance with Vidle Housing’s growing network of furnished rental inventory and housing partners nationwide, VidleConnect helps create a more seamless transition for healthcare professionals relocating for work.

As healthcare staffing firms continue to compete for top travel clinicians, the overall traveler experience has become increasingly important. Housing remains one of the most common concerns expressed by healthcare travelers when evaluating and preparing for assignments.

If you are part of a healthcare staffing agency and would like to learn more about VidleConnect and the Vidle.com/Vidle Housing community, please contact us here.

From regional startup to national leader: Hansei has scaled its behavioral health RCM services to providers across 42 states.

FRANKLIN, Tenn., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hansei Solutions marks a decade of advancing behavioral health care — strategically growing into the nation’s largest private third-party revenue cycle management partner for mental health and addiction treatment providers.

Since its founding in 2016, the company has helped over 300,000 patients secure access to behavioral healthcare treatment. Today, Hansei Solutions — with a team of more than 400 employees — collects more than $1.4 billion annually in reimbursements and recovered claims for providers across 42 states.

Better Billing, Better Access to Care 

Revenue cycle management in addiction and mental health facilities has never been more challenging: claim denials, shifting payer requirements, and administrative burdens all pull time and resources away from patient care. 

“From day one, Hansei was built on a simple belief: access to care starts with fair reimbursement. Ten years later, that belief hasn’t changed — but the scale and urgency of the problem have only grown,” said Erin Burke, Founder and CEO of Hansei Solutions. 

Hansei Solutions was built to solve exactly that — with ethical, compliant billing practices that get providers paid accurately and on time, so they can stay focused on patient care. 

“Revenue cycle management isn’t an administrative function — it’s the economic engine that determines whether care is accessible or out of reach. Hansei exists to help providers get paid fairly so more people can get the care they deserve — and that belief will carry us through the next decade,” said Erin Burke.

The Next Decade of Growth

As behavioral healthcare continues to evolve, Hansei Solutions is committed to expanding its team of experts and advancing technology solutions. This combination of strategic partnership strengthens reimbursement performance, improves compliance, and helps providers grow their capacity to serve patients.

“We are proud of what we’ve built over the last decade, but we are even more excited about what lies ahead,” said Patrick Dunn, Chief Strategy Officer of Hansei Solutions. “Hansei remains committed to expanding access to care, strengthening our partners, and driving meaningful change across the communities we serve. Ten years is a milestone worth celebrating, but for us, it’s also the beginning of the next chapter.”
