We go beyond just sharing our story. We take you through the knotty world of employing locum physicians, helping you understand the importance of clear contracts, treating physicians as independent contractors, and ensuring comprehensive medical malpractice coverage. We also cover the often overlooked, yet vital aspect of drafting a bulletproof schedule for doctors. We discuss automation, the challenges of managing a schedule manually, and the need for a strict cancellation policy. Trust us; these administrative details can make or break a locum agency.

Finally, we pull back the curtain on the business aspect of running a locum tenens agency. We discuss managing expenses, from setting up a doctor scheduling system to potential travel arrangements. And when it comes to growth, we share our experiences and insights on the pros and cons of expanding, and the importance of fostering strong relationships with hospitals and providers. Plus, we respond to questions from listeners eager to explore locum tenens, shedding light on the benefits and addressing common concerns. Our aim is to provide you with the tools and knowledge needed to take the leap into the world of locum tenens. So, tune in for an episode packed with practical advice, personal anecdotes, and plenty of laughs along the way.
