Recruiting a physician requires more than filling an open position. Practices need a clear understanding of staffing needs, role requirements, compensation expectations, recruitment options, and onboarding considerations.  

You'll learn how to: 

• Assess staffing needs and define the role 
• Determine whether a physician or advanced practice provider (APP) is the best fit 
• Select recruitment channels based on your goals and budget 
• Decide when to engage an outside recruiter 
• Develop a physician compensation package 
• Highlight the strengths of your practice, including culture, flexibility, and location 
• Manage the recruitment process using a 30-60-90-day timeline 

You'll also find decision frameworks, comparison charts, checklists, and planning tools to support each stage of the recruitment process, from identifying a vacancy to extending an offer. 

Designed for small and midsize practices, this playbook provides practical guidance for recruiting physicians, maintaining patient access, and managing provider vacancies.
