Avoid the high cost of downtime and wrong hires

Hospital Hands is the direct solution for surgical leaders who need to solve staffing challenges instantly without sacrificing clinical excellence.

By eliminating the recruiter bottleneck, we empower you to secure qualified, board-certified anesthesia providers in hours, not days

THE COST OF INEFFICIENCY

The old model is unsustainable.

The traditional agency model was built for a different era.

Today, relying on middlemen means bleeding margin and losing control over your OR schedules.

Rising Costs
Facilities can no longer afford 30% markups on top of rising physician rates.

Costly Downtime
OR downtime costs hundreds of dollars per minute. Waiting on a recruiter is expensive.

The Fix
Direct access is the only way to lower costs while attracting top talent.

Take control of your staffing costs and coverage.

The traditional agency model is slow and expensive. We built a direct marketplace designed to save you money and fill shifts faster.

Eliminate agency markups

Stop paying 20-30% premiums on every shift. Pay the clinician directly and a small transaction fee.

Fill shifts faster

No waiting on recruiters. Post a need and connect with available professionals in hours, not days.

Verified profiles

Review training, certifications, and work history upfront before you book. Know exactly who is walking into your OR.

No non-competes

Found someone you like? Bring them back. There are no contract barriers preventing you from rehiring trusted talent.

Direct negotiation

Set rates that work for your budget. Negotiate details directly with the clinician to ensure alignment.

Flexible coverage

Scale your staff for peak demand or cover last-minute gaps without being locked into long-term subsidies.

Stop paying premiums for gatekeepers.

Start hiring talent directly.

Agencies profit from keeping you dependent.

Hospital Hands gives you direct access, transparent pricing, and the freedom to build a roster of providers you trust, without the 30% markup.

THE COST OF INEFFICIENCY

The old model is draining your margin.

OR downtime costs hundreds of dollars per minute. Waiting on a recruiter isn't just frustrating, it's expensive.

The breaking point.

Physician shortages are driving rates up, and adding a 20-30% agency fee on top makes staffing unsustainable.

You’re probably asking...

Get direct answers to the biggest questions about the direct-hire model and how Hospital Hands is safer, faster, and more affordable than traditional locums.

Is Hospital Hands just another locums agency?

No. We are a direct-connection marketplace. We cut out the recruiters and the 20-30% agency markups. You and the facility negotiate directly. No middleman, no hidden cuts.

How do I know the providers/jobs are trustworthy?

We build trust through transparency. Facilities can review full provider profiles (training, certifications, history), and providers can see clear job details and negotiate rates up front. This removes the risk of the "oversold" solutions common with agencies.

How fast can a shift be filled?

Posting is immediate, and providers can apply directly to the facility. Without recruiter bottlenecks, shifts are often filled on the same day or within hours, keeping your ORs running efficiently.

What does it cost to use Hospital Hands?

Facilities pay a simple transaction fee per booking, not the high 20-30% agency premiums. Providers keep what they earn from the agreed-upon rate, with no agency cut.

Can a facility hire a provider back without a penalty?

Yes. There are absolutely no non-competes or long-term contracts blocking your choices. Facilities can rehire the providers they know and trust, and providers have the independence to work where they choose.
