New Physician Recruiting Incentives Report

AMN Healthcare’s Physician Solutions division (formerly known as Merritt Hawkins) has released its Review of Physician and Advanced Practitioner Recruiting Incentives annually for the last 30 years.

Cited every year by Modern Healthcare and many other publications, the Review offers benchmark data and analysis used by hospitals, medical groups and other organizations to determine which physician and advanced practitioner (AP) recruiting incentives are customary and competitive.

The recently released 2023 Review continues to be the most comprehensive source of data regarding physician and AP starting salaries, signing bonuses, production bonuses and related recruiting incentives in the industry. It also offers an in-depth analysis of the latest trends driving physician supply and demand, recruitment and retention.

Some key findings from the 2023 Review are:

  • 64% of AMN Healthcare’s search engagements this year were for physician specialists.
  • Average starting salary offers made to specialists were generally up year-over-year.
  • Nurse practitioners topped the list of AMN Healthcare’s most requested search engagements for the third consecutive year.
