Innovated Staffing That Delivers Happier Physicians
Open Source M.D. was founded by physicians who recognized the need for a better approach to the challenges of physician staffing in hospitals.
A Better Solution For Hospital Physician Staffing
Let’s face it. The usual hospital staffing agencies are designed to profit their parent companies first. Little attention is paid to actually helping hospitals operate more efficiently or deliver better patient care.
The name of the game is meeting the minimum requirements with the maximum amount of profit. The results? Overworked, overstressed hospitalists, inefficient hospital staff scheduling, poor communication, and lower morale.
Open Source M.D. was founded by physicians who saw a need for a new paradigm in hospital physician staffing. We set out to create precisely that, based on our own experiences with physician staffing challenges.
How Open Source M.D. Empowers The Physician
Open Source M.D. physicians manage their practice through their own business entity; either an LLC or S-Corporation. Open Source MD allows physicians to work more efficiently and collaboratively, leading to increased income.
We facilitate the relationship between the hospital and physician rather than acting like an interloper the way typical hosptial staffing agencies do. Our objectives are aligned with the physician’s and the hospital’s.
We work to foster long-term relationships and stable hospital staffing. More efficient shift management and savvy deployment of resources boosts both morale and quality of cars. That’s better for everyone.

Why Pay OSMD a Service Fee?
Physicians who are affiliated with Open Source M.D. pay a fee for the client services we provide for their convenience. This fee is strategically structured to be tax-deductible for our physicians. We have designed our revenue system with a fair market value concept, allowing our physicians to write off this fee as an expense on their taxes. This approach ensures that our physicians can benefit from both the stability and longevity of being part of our professional practice while also enjoying the flexibility and financial advantages of working as independent contractors.
In typical physician staffing relationships between hospitals and medical staffing agencies, the third-party company takes a portion of the physician’s compensation for themselves. Open Source M.D. follows a different philosophy. Instead of charging a fee to hospitals, we request that they offer longevity in contracts to our physicians, staff the service appropriately, and provide fair wages. We prioritize the well-being and interests of our physicians while maintaining a mutually beneficial relationship with the hospitals we work with.
