August 16, 2017
More than 90% of the U.S. healthcare industry now uses locum tenens physicians in their medical facilities. As we honor those doctors during the first-ever National Locum Tenens Week, here are the top three reasons for the growth of locum tenens staffing.
Thank you to everyone who made our first-ever National Locum Tenens Week a success last year. According to our survey, over 80% of healthcare staffing companies recognized the inaugural promotion. The feedback we received told us to keep it simple for companies to get involved again in 2018, offer the marketing toolkit earlier and with minimal changes to its assets.
With that in mind, here’s a quick update on what to expect from NALTO® for this year’s promotion, restate our purpose and communicate the valuable opportunity that lies in promoting our industry together.
Dallas, Texas – August 13, 2018 – The National Association of Locum Tenens Organizations® (NALTO®) is leading healthcare staffing firms this week in the annual celebration of National Locum Tenens Week, recognizing locum tenens physicians for their ongoing contributions in meeting our nation’s healthcare needs.
“We’re proud to lead our industry again in acknowledging those physicians who devote themselves to practicing locum tenens and show our appreciation for their dedication in serving patients throughout our communities,” says Stacey Stanley, NALTO® President.
Last August, the National Association of Locum Tenens Organizations (NALTO) celebrated the first-ever National Locum Tenens Week. The healthcare staffing industry is doing so again this week, and it’s an opportunity to thank locum tenens providers for their dedication to serving millions of patients at medical facilities every day in this country.
As many as 50,000 doctors, more than 5 percent of the physician workforce, practice medicine as a locum tenens doctor in more than 90 percent of our healthcare facilities to provide care for an estimated 7.5 million Americans every year, according to a recent report.
