The consultant will also get to know you and ask about your other interests. Do you have family members or pets traveling with you, for example? Do you prefer living in a warm or a cooler climate? Do you prefer the window or aisle seat or want to stay close to home? Once they have an idea of the types of positions and locations that you’re after, your consultant will start looking for jobs for you. They will send along cardiologist job openings when they match your salary, schedule, and location requirements.

What cardiologists are saying about us

“I ultimately decided to go with CompHealth because I called and talked to my physician consultant, and he called me right back. That relationship is really important. He’s been my person, and he gets back to me. I know that when something comes up for me at CompHealth, I’ll get a call.”

Helping patients in rural areas through cardiology jobs

Everyone knows there’s a physician shortage. But one thing that isn’t talked about as much is that high-demand physician specialties like cardiology are becoming increasingly concentrated in urban areas, leaving rural patients behind. Locum tenens cardiologists can fill that gap and bring desperately needed care to these underserved populations. Many locum physicians who work in these rural locations report feeling a sense of pride in being able to give back. Along with a sense of pride, these positions typically pay far higher, especially for locum tenens.

What are locum cardiologist jobs, anyway?

The term locum tenens, Latin for “holding the place of,” is the name for temporary positions physicians take at facilities around the United States. Short-term locum tenens assignments can last just one day, while long-term locum tenens assignments can extend up to one year.

There’s a number of ways to work cardiology locums jobs. Some work it on the side of their full-time job. Others work locums full time, taking assignment after assignment back-to-back. Others will semi-retire, choosing to work when and where they’d like. Others use it as a way to get paid to travel to bucket list destinations. No matter how you want to work it, we’re here to make it happen.

Facilities and patients need locum tenens like you

Healthcare facilities contract with staffing agencies to fill a need. This is often because a staff doctor is on leave or vacation, the facility needs more providers during a certain time (like flu season), or a full-time position hasn’t been filled yet. At some facilities, locum tenens physicians work longer-term assignments because it is difficult to staff a full-time provider in the area.

Bottom line is that patients need care, and facilities need physicians to deliver that care, and they’re willing to pay you top dollar for it.

How cardiology locums get paid

When you work locum tenens, the healthcare facility pays the staffing agency, which in turn pays you (generally via direct deposit once a week). Cardiologists who work locum tenens are usually paid hourly and typically earn a higher wage than those in regular staff positions.

Physician salaries vary depending on the facility type, patient load, location, required skill set, and shifts. However, locum tenens cardiologists generally earn more per hour than staff positions.

Here’s what cardiologists are saying about locums

“I was so glum, just depressed because I was not ready to retire. Then I got a cold call asking if I was interested in locum tenens and told my husband we were going to Montana. It really was a leap of faith. I’d never been to Montana and knew nothing about the practice there. I completely fell in love with everything about it, from the physicians, hospital, and mid-level support to the patients, topography, and geography. It was a perfect fit for me.”

“I’ve been happy working locums. I feel I’m balanced with how much I work versus how much time I get to spend at home. I think I’ll continue to do locums until I retire.”
