After another record-breaking revenue year in 2023, Interim was ranked among the top 20 locum tenens agencies out of more than 200 and was one of the 100 largest healthcare staffing firms overall in 2024, a first-time achievement.
“Our position on this prestigious list is a reflection of the relentless passion of everyone on our team, in every department,” said Tim Hand, Chief Executive Officer of Interim Physicians. “Despite high demand for our services, our commitment to delivering top-tier service and exceptional locum tenens providers remains steadfast,” he noted.
“Winning awards is always gratifying, but to us, the true meaning of this accolade is that we are succeeding in our mission to provide healthcare where it would otherwise not exist,” Hand added. “That’s what this business is all about, and we’re incredibly proud of delivering for our healthcare facility clients when called upon.”
The past 12 months have underscored the critical role of locum tenens providers in America’s healthcare system. Whether managing patient surges, addressing provider burnout, or ensuring continuity of care until permanent staff are hired, locum tenens professionals supplied by Interim Physicians have been indispensable.
“Locum tenens coverage is becoming a key component of our healthcare system’s delivery of care model,” Hand continued. “Our mission to provide vital healthcare services where they are needed most is stronger than ever. I am deeply proud of our team’s individual talents and collective dedication, which made this recognition possible.”
Shawn Mullen, President of Interim Physicians and board member of the National Association of Locum Tenens Organizations (NALTO), added, “Being named one of the largest locums agencies in the country is a significant milestone for us. It underscores our consistent, focused execution and our tailored approach to meeting the needs of both our clients and providers. This recognition motivates us to continue setting higher standards for ourselves in the locum tenens industry.”
Interim Physicians’ designation by SIA highlights the company’s legacy of excellence and innovation in the locum tenens staffing industry since the firm’s founding in 1979. As a trusted partner to healthcare facilities and providers alike, Interim Physicians continues to lead the way in ensuring essential healthcare services are delivered where they are needed most.
“We are grateful to our clients and providers for embracing us as their staffing partners this past year. We believe that the quality of our providers and excellence in customer service to both our providers and clients are keys to our success. After reaching new heights as an organization in 2024, we can’t wait to see where we land on next year’s list,” Mullen exclaimed.
