Currently we use health professional contracting agencies to source our health professionals. Some of these professionals do contracting as a side hustle while their w2 employment is with a hospital or clinic. Others only work part-time to supplement family income, and some do it full-time. Health professionals who work for these contracting agencies on a full-time basis do generally receive health insurance and other benefits through the agency.

I attempted a startup in a similar space.

One big opportunity for us was the flexibility and more relaxed work-style. Working in hospital is stressful and it just burns a lot of people out. For example, in the nursing population, there are a lot of semi-retired nurses who actively maintain their licensing, but do not want to work full time in a hospital.
