Some of these expenses include, but are not limited to: Benefits Signing bonuses Health insurance Relocation fees Not to mention the hiring process for a full-time provider takes longer than that of a locum. This means while you are candidate searching, you are costing your facility money via gaps in patient care, interrupted work flow, low employee morale, and cost of lost referrals.
