Locumpedia is proud to announce its first-annual Locum Tenens Providers of the Year award campaign for physicians, CRNAs, and advanced practice providers who were among the best of the best in 2022.

Locumpedia’s campaign renews the tradition of the now-defunct Locum Life magazine’s Locum Tenens of the Year award, which was a wonderful way for the industry to celebrate locum tenens providers — and, at the same time, remind the medical community of the importance of locum tenens in delivering quality healthcare to patients in need.

We thought this notion of unity was sorely needed in 2022, and we are proud to help the industry recognize the best of the best.
