[White Paper] Physician Recruitment: The Cost to Hire and Return on Investment

Physician Recruitment: The Cost to Hire and Return on Investment

by Tony Stajduhar, President, Jackson Physician Search

Healthcare organizations depend on recruiting and retaining physicians and advanced practice providers to support their mission to offer quality patient care.

Return on Investment is a straightforward concept that is familiar to leaders in healthcare’s outcomes-driven environment. Yet, in the area of recruitment, many organizations lack a structured method and accountability for measuring recruitment success, efficiency and return on investment.
