A recruiter grabbed the first record and moved to submittal; credentialing flagged it because the city\/address didn\u2019t match the candidate. The fix was simple: require \u201cMatched by (Florida record field)\u201d in the ATS note and only allow \u201cLicense #\u201d or \u201cCity\/Address on FL DOH record.\u201d That one field prevents the wrong-person error without slowing the search down.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_improve_results\"><\/span>How to improve results<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Speed comes from standardization: one note format, one set of required fields, and a re-check cadence that prevents last-minute surprises.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Make \u201csource URL + checked at\u201d mandatory.<\/strong> If the link and timestamp aren\u2019t in the record, it\u2019s not verified.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use acceptance criteria for \u201cverified.\u201d<\/strong> Verified = identity match + license number + exact status text + source URL + timestamp.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Schedule re-checks.<\/strong> Add a task at submittal and again pre-offer or pre-start.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Escalate when:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You can\u2019t confirm identity on the FL DOH record (multiple matches, missing identifiers).<\/li>\n<li>Status text is unexpected or unclear (capture exact text and route to credentialing\/compliance).<\/li>\n<li>The discipline section is present (record presence only; route for review).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Measurement instructions (required):<\/strong> Measure this by\u2026 tracking the percent of Florida submissions that include (1) license number, (2) exact status text, and (3) source URL + timestamp in the ATS note.
