Rotating residents and medical students can help familiarize future physicians with your practice, as well as with the details of day-to-day life at a small practice. Younger physicians seeking hospital employment may not know the reality of a small practice and may be more attracted to the opportunity if they understand the details.
The American Medical News report also suggests using bigger entities, such as state medical societies, to boost recruiting efforts. Many state medical societies have a database of physicians that members can access.
One effective strategy for physician recruitment is to explain the difference between a small practice and a large system, according to the report. For example, small practices often have more flexibility and independence and provide a significant connection with patients.
