Medical staff outsourcing is not as uncommon as you might believe. For non-core functions, health systems and even hospitals regularly outsource to specialized service companies. This leads to increased service, better quality, and — perhaps most importantly — helps control the costs for doing so.
More recently, outsourcing has been proven to increase revenue, lower patient costs, improve the quality of service, help ensure compliance, and even greater physician satisfaction. An outsourced medical staff could also help a practice or hospital to employ more physicians.
