Dear Locum Tenens Clinicians,
“The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.”
-Pablo Picasso
In honor of National Locum Tenens Week, VISTA wishes to extend a sincere and tremendous thank-you to locum tenens physicians and advanced practitioners everywhere.

As a government locums provider with VISTA, you can take great pride in providing care to the men and women who have served, or are currently serving, America’s military, as well as others in underserved areas such as the Native American populations. Locum tenens work comes with a lot of inherent advantages — like a flexible schedule, the ability to travel, plus the comfort of job security. Government healthcare facilities offer the opportunity to enjoy those benefits with the added fulfillment of personal and professional satisfaction.
Doximity recently released its second annual Physician Compensation Report, drawing on the responses of more than 65,000 licensed U.S. doctors across 40 different specialties to provide the most comprehensive view of physician compensation available. Despite the education and training required to practice medicine, there’s seemingly no exception when it comes to the gender wage gap. In fact, on average, the gap is greater in medicine than in other industries.
Imagine how patients used to see their doctors before large hospitals and group practices existed. Back then, it was relatively common for doctors to make house calls for any patient too sick to come to the local office. Indeed, there were plenty of doctors back in the day who did not even maintain regular offices. Most of their work was done in the homes of their patients. Believe it or not, the house call model is making a comeback in America which has led us to wonder if there is any place for house calls in psychiatry.
