The Problem

Locums agencies profit from your blind spot.

The traditional model is designed to keep you in the dark. The less you know, the more they keep.

📵

You're kept in the dark on pay

Agencies know the bill rate. You don't. They take 25–50% off the top before you ever see a number — and they're not required to tell you.

📱

Recruiter spam is the business model

Texts at dinner. Calls during shifts. Silly gifts designed to manufacture obligation. It's not relationship-building — it's a retention tactic.

📁

Your CV gets submitted without consent

Agencies mass-submit your credentials to facilities. Two agencies claim the same placement. You find out when your placement is in dispute.

Hidden costs nobody explains

Malpractice, housing, travel — these numbers are buried or weaponized as levers. You can't negotiate what you can't see.

How It Works

Three steps. Full clarity.

No intake calls. No recruiter unlocking jobs for you. Just a clean platform that puts every number in front of you first.

STEP 01

Browse on your schedule

Search nationwide locum positions by specialty, location, rate, and duration. No phone tag. No application required to see what's available.

STEP 02

See every dollar upfront

Every listing shows the bill rate, our fee (always ≤10%), malpractice cost, and your exact take-home. Nothing hidden. Nothing negotiated after the fact.

STEP 03

Accept on your terms

Your CV goes nowhere without explicit, per-submission consent. No lock-in. No exclusivity. Work one assignment or twenty — your call.

🩺

Physician-built, physician-led

Not private equity. Not an administrator. Built by someone who has worked the exact shifts you're about to take.

From the Founder

"I built the platform I wish existed when I started doing locums — because after nearly a decade in emergency medicine, I know exactly how the current system extracts from physicians."

The recruiter who texted me during a 24-hour shift. The agency that submitted my CV to three hospitals without asking. The assignment where I found out months later the facility was paying nearly double what I received. This isn't an accident — opacity is the business model.

Pivot MD is a direct correction. Technology makes it completely possible to connect physicians with facilities without a commission-hungry middleman taking 30–50% off the top. We take ≤10%. You see everything. That's the whole deal.

It is 2026. Let technology connect you with your next locums job. Why give half your paycheck to someone who didn't put in the hours completing med school and residency?
