Abstract:
The American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA) Practice Committee endorsed by the Board of Governors presents a Position Statement on the role of locum tenens in the practice of pediatric surgery. The Practice Committee also presents a set of guidelines for locum tenens practice. These recommendations highlight safe practice and quality care that protects the patient as well as the pediatric surgeon by offering best practice standards, defining optimal resources and establishing parameters by which hospitals and locum tenens agencies should abide. These guidelines are intended to foster discussion and contract negotiation as well as inform decision making for a) pediatric surgeons considering locum tenens opportunities, b) host organizations (hospitals and practices) seeking the coverage of a pediatric surgeon, and c) locum tenens companies vetting both surgeons and hospitals for appropriateness of such coverage. This Position Statement and foundational set of guidelines align with APSA\'s Vision (all children receive the highest quality surgical care) and Mission (to provide the best surgical care to our patients and families by supporting an inclusive community through education, discovery and advocacy).
