Locum Tenens Placement
Locum work between jobs, during a job search, or as a standing part of your career — matched by specialty and state, with real pay-rate context going in.
What's included
Locum tenens work covers a wider range of situations than most people expect: a resident testing a specialty before committing, an attending between jobs, a physician adding income on the side, or someone easing toward retirement without stopping cold. The pay structures differ by specialty and by state, and the headline day rate is rarely what actually lands in your account once travel, housing, and 1099 tax treatment are accounted for.
DocNation’s placement service matches assignments against your specialty and state, and — same principle as the compensation review side — gives you the real effective rate before you commit, not after.
