Industry Demand Report Data – January 2026

Industry Demand Report Data – January 2026

What Healthcare Leaders Need to Know Entering 2026

Demand Moderates. Pricing Holds.

Healthcare workforce activity cooled into the end of the year, but cost pressure didn’t follow.

As requisition volumes stepped down through Q4, bill rates across nursing and allied remained anchored in the mid-$80s. The market has shifted from volatility to discipline, yet access to experienced clinicians is still constrained, especially in high-acuity states.

The January Industry Demand Report delivers more than a monthly snapshot. It combines month-over-month signals with quarter-end and full-year analysis to show healthcare leaders what truly changed in 2025, and what didn’t.

Built for executives, finance leaders, and workforce strategists, this report separates normalization from relief and helps organizations enter 2026 with confidence.

Why January’s Demand Data Matters

Year-end visibility provides something most market updates cannot: confirmation of durable trends.

Inside the report, leaders gain clarity on:

  • How far volumes have fallen from peak levels across monthly and quarterly views

  • Where pricing reset during the year and why it held

  • How demand behaved over the full 2025 cycle

  • Which markets continue to create concentrated cost exposure

  • What patterns are most likely to carry into 2026
