DALLAS, TX, August 07, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- The Delta Companies recently released the second quarter edition of The Physician Recruiting Standard, a free resource that provides a summary of current data and market trends in physician recruitment.
The current shortage of primary care providers is having an effect on a number of aspects in the recruitment of the category's specialties, but most notably compensation and placement times.
"While primary care continues to sit atop the specialty demand list, the good news is that we are seeing the shortest placement times with these specialties and an overall increase in their compensation," says Ryan Tipton, executive vice president of Delta Physician Placement.
Specialties such as family medicine, pediatrics, and obstetrics/gynecology have all experienced an increase in compensation over the last twelve months.
The competitiveness to attract primary care providers has healthcare facilities working fast to interview and secure physicians.
"It is important to prepare your team for a single, comprehensive interview process as if it is the only shot with the candidate," says Ty Chambers, vice president of marketing with Delta Physician Placement.
