If you’re a physician, CRNA, NP, or PA and you’ve been feeling burned out, underpaid, or just stuck in the same routine every week… it may be worth looking into locums.
Locum tenens is basically temporary medical staffing where providers take short-term assignments at hospitals and clinics that need coverage. A lot of people use it to:
-make significantly more money
-have more schedule flexibility
travel
-avoid hospital politics/full-time burnout
-test different locations before settling down
Some assignments are just a few shifts a month, others are full-time contracts. Travel and housing are often covered too.
If you’re curious what you could realistically make doing locums, this calculator is actually pretty useful.
Even if you don’t switch immediately, it’s good to at least know what your market value is right now.
