Recruiting PhysiciansRetaining quality doctors has become a significant struggle for healthcare providers.

In order to be competitive in today's environment, hospitals and healthcare providers need to have trained internal recruiting staff, leverage outside executive placement firms, and offer substantial compensation packages with fringe benefits.
