Stephen Read, president and owner of National, commented on the changes in the current healthcare environment, citing big changes brought about by the passage of the healthcare reform law.
“I see this as a time of opportunity,” Mr. Read said in the release. “With insurance companies cutting reimbursements, physicians may not make the kind of money they made in the past. Fewer young people will go into medicine. Older physicians will opt for early retirement. This could result in a severe shortage of physicians, setting the staffing industry in perpetual motion. Medical facilities will be looking for support in many departments including locum tenens radiology, hospitalists, emergency medicine and anesthesiology.”
