Find an advanced practice role that actually fits

No. There is no cost to you at any point in the process. The Medicus Firm is paid by the hiring organization, not by the advanced practitioners we work with, so our guidance and advocacy on your behalf come at zero cost to you.

Absolutely. We never contact your current employer, and we never share your information with anyone without your explicit consent. Nothing moves forward, no introductions, no submissions, no conversations, without your knowledge and approval every step of the way.

You choose your first path. You can apply directly to a role that catches your eye, or start with a conversation with a consultant in your specialty, who will take the time to understand what you are looking for in a future opportunity. From there, we continue to align you with opportunities that fit, well beyond the first role you noticed, so your search does not end with a single application.

Scope of practice for advanced practice providers, including nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), certified registered nursing anesthetists (CRNAs) and other APPs, is regulated at the state level and can vary significantly by profession and location. Depending on the state and role, there may be different requirements around physician collaboration, physician supervision, prescribing authority, and full practice authority. Because these regulations change over time, your consultant can help you understand how a specific opportunity is structured, while current scope of practice laws should always be confirmed through the appropriate state licensing or regulatory authority.

State law sets the ceiling, but the organization sets the floor, and the two do not always match. Some organizations use advanced practitioners broadly within their permitted scope; others structure roles more narrowly based on workflow, policy, or practice model. Because our consultants work directly with the organizations we represent, they can help you understand how the role functions day to day, not just what the job description allows on paper.

Support structure and staffing ratios rarely show up in a job posting, but they shape what your day-to-day actually looks like: patient volume, clinical backup, and how much administrative work falls to you versus the broader team. Because our consultants build firsthand familiarity with the organizations we represent, they can often provide context you would not get from the job description alone.

Understand what type of malpractice coverage is provided, whether tail coverage could become your responsibility, and whether the contract includes restrictive covenants such as non-compete or non-solicitation provisions. Requirements and enforceability vary by state and provider type, so these terms should be reviewed carefully and, where appropriate, with an attorney. Your consultant can help you identify the questions to ask before you sign.

That is correct. We focus exclusively on permanent placement, so if you are specifically looking for locum tenens or contract work, we will not be the right resource for that search. Every opportunity we bring you is oriented around a lasting fit, not a short-term or temporary assignment.
