A New Physician Workforce Solution

We help place international physicians through emerging licensure pathways

The Physician Shortage is Only Getting Worse

The US will have 87,000+ vacant PCP positions by 2037.

Every unfilled PCP position reduces quality of care, increases staff burnout, and costs $2-3M annually in lost billings.

Long wait times cause patient frustration and churn. Patients don’t get the care they need; outcomes decline.

The physician hiring model is insufficient and outdated.

There’s a New Workforce in 20+ States

Map of the United States with selected states shaded in blue.

Approximately 60,000 foreign-trained physicians already living in the United States have historically been unable to practice.

Recent legislative changes in many states (with more to come) now allow these physicians to return to clinical practice. This unlocks a large, highly trained workforce that is already here and ready to work.

IMG Careers helps healthcare organizations access this new workforce safely, compliantly, and effectively.
