  • Development of comprehensive checklists for practice readiness.
  • Identification of key issues to address with locum tenens physicians.
  • Establishment of metrics for evaluating locum performance and practice integration.

Main Results:

  • Checklists facilitate proactive problem-solving and enhance locum integration.
  • Defined evaluation measures allow for objective assessment of locum impact.
  • Practices can better prepare for and manage locum tenens physician placements.

Conclusions:

  • Systematic preparation and evaluation are vital for successful general practice locum tenens integration.
  • Checklists and defined metrics improve the efficiency and effectiveness of locum services.
  • Optimizing locum tenens physician placement benefits both the practice and patient care.
