Healthcare recruitment runs on its own rules: DBS upcosts, framework rate caps, NHS vs private pricing logic, per-trust commercial terms. RateCalc.io is shaped around those rules, not the other way round.
Charge rate shown against the trust cap visually. Headroom or breach surfaced before you hit send so quotes that would be rejected never go out.
Quoting above the NHS framework cap means the trust rejects the rate, the candidate goes elsewhere, you lose the shift. We surface the cap before send so the quote that goes out is the quote that wins.
The deep, real features that move the needle for this vertical. Each one ships out of the box, no add-on, no integration to configure.
Pre-set pay tiers per role band so consultants do not have to remember whether an HCA Band 2 is £11.50 or £12. The rate card stays current; the quote stays accurate.
Compliance costs are real costs. Price them per role per worker so margin reflects what it actually costs to deliver a compliant placement.
NHS trusts vs private hospitals have very different payment terms and rebate schedules. Hold them per client on the ToB so future quotes never use the wrong defaults.
Days, nights, weekends, on-call. Premiums vary by role and trust. Configure once, apply automatically.
DBS, RTW, mandatory training, indemnity wording. Optional clauses can be toggled on for sensitive trusts, off for private clients. Default set stays untouched.
CQC inspections, framework audits, internal reviews. Every signed Terms of Business comes with signer email, IP, timestamp, ready for any compliance request.
Compliance is a real cost. We bake it into every quote per role so the margin you see reflects what it actually costs to deliver a compliant placement, not the headline rate.
Different trusts have very different fee, payment and rebate terms. Each one is held against the client so future quotes always use the right defaults automatically.
Healthcare-specific maths and clauses built in, not bolted on.
