The Physician Recruitment Playbook: Real-world strategies to recruit, retain, and inspire physicians and providers (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798295780073)

The Physician Recruitment Playbook is a practical, human-centered guide for healthcare leaders navigating today's physician shortages, burnout crisis, and rapidly changing workforce expectations. Drawing on real-world experience across rural hospitals, community systems, and large integrated networks, the book reframes recruitment as a strategic leadership function-not a transactional HR task-and provides actionable frameworks for sourcing, interviewing, onboarding, credentialing, retention, and long-term workforce planning. Blending data-driven strategy with deeply human insight, it shows how the right recruitment approach can stabilize service lines, protect access to care, strengthen culture, and restore trust for physicians, families, and communities alike. At its core, the book makes a clear case: when recruitment is done with clarity, integrity, and compassion, it doesn't just change organizations-it changes lives.
