CompHealth reviews

The work of recruiting can be a bit tedious--lots and lots of phone calls. But there is really no better way to find doctors to work locum tenens assignments. There are many departments involved in placing doctors in the various hospitals and clinics CH works with. I think that the staff in almost all departments is great at what they do, but sometimes communication and a sense of urgency can be an issue. When an assignment falls through or goes south, it can be very stressful managing the competing interests of providers and clients (hosp, clinics, etc). But usually you have thhe help and support of management to deal with any serious problems. Also, there are a lot of competing locum tenens agencies out there and it can be frustrating trying to compete with the ones that mislead and cut corners with their physicians. CompHealth is thorough and consistent in their vetting of potential recruits and clients, but I feel that sometimes they lose business because of how much paperwork and documentation they require up front.

They believe they have an amazing training program. They don't the first week is a self agrandizing waste of time and effort. When I started they were on their way up. They even made it to the top 5 in companies to work for. Unfortunately they started buying their own hipe and have been started slidding. In one year the dropped nearly 20 spots. Instead of figuring out what went wrong they have convinced themselves it was a statistical anomaly. Bottom line you know a company is on its' way out when the CEO is jumping ship.
