2023 carries a lot of expectations! We are all looking forward to a year of good health, prosperous business and general well-being. We are hoping to see a bounce in elective procedures this coming year. Healthcare systems will likely be performing more procedures, more surgeries, and more outpatient visits due to pent up demand. To execute your hiring objectives and staff your medical clinics for 2023, you need a pipeline of qualified, pre-screened physicians and advanced practice providers. Finding the right people to provide medical care for your organization is a challenge in any recruitment season, however, in our post-pandemic world, it takes on an even greater urgency. The normal attrition we expect with our physician providers has been accelerated in the near term by early retirements, providers cutting back on hours worked or providers moving “back home” to be closer to family. Physician and APP staffing is always a priority for medical organizations, but in 2023 organizations will need to create an outstanding strategy to attract top medical candidates. Nothing less will do.
Expectations are also high for internal staff recruiters. Doing more with less has become everyone’s mantra. Budgets are stretched, not just thin, but very thin. Everyone is seeking new strategies that will be effective, timely and budget friendly. With limited dollars to spend, the need to get more service at greater cost-efficiency is paramount. Partnering with a good sourcing company can be just what the doctor ordered! Sourcing companies complement your internal recruiting department, they do not compete with them.
Good sourcing companies can save you money, time and fill your pipeline with quality providers that are interview ready. Physician sourcing companies can access both active and passive candidates that have ties to your region, meet your clinical and cultural criteria and have expressed direct interest in your employment opportunities. By partnering with you, they can extend your brand recognition and introduce your organization to the candidate. When you find the right company to partner with, they will showcase your healthcare organization as an employer of choice. A good sourcing company will research your organization learning where you “shine”. Understanding your benefits and recruitment incentive structure, your sourcing company can deliver more candidates that are looking for the positions that you are offering. Taking the time to learn each candidate’s needs and wants, provides you and your organization with the information you need to engage and connect with the candidate early in the process. These engaged, pre-screened candidates can shorten your time to hire, relieving you of screening tasks and freeing you do what you do best – recruit and retain top talent.
Partnering with a good physician sourcing company can help fill your open positions faster and get your providers to work. If you have primary care providers and specialists seeing patients, performing procedures and surgeries, you have played a critical role in improving your facility revenue stream, building loyalty to your organization and reducing potential out-migration of your patient base. It’s a win!
