2024 Review of Physician and Advanced Practitioner Recruiting Incentives
Specialists Lead in “Absolute Demand?” AMN Healthcare determines demand for physicians and APPs in part by tracking the number of search engagements we conduct for various types of providers. It is to be expected that specialties that have a comparatively high number of practicing physicians, such as family medicine, will generate a comparatively high number of search engagements. But how does the picture look if specialties are ranked by number of search engagements/job openings as a percent of all active providers in a given specialty, or by what AMN Healthcare calls “Absolute Demand?” The list below ranks demand for physicians in this manner.
