Locum tenens programs were independently developed by the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center and East Carolina University School of Medicine to address health care needs within their states. The programs represent distinct models to provide locum tenens services for practices in rural and medically underserved regions through collaboration with stage government representatives and agencies. Differences between programs include years of operation, days of coverage provided, types of learners and providers involved, sources of funding, costs of the programs, and extent of institutional support. Common beneficial outcomes of the programs include coverage for struggling practices, training in rural medicine for locum tenens providers, recruitment of physicians to rural practice sites, and improved relationships with program partners. Adequate funding and institutional support are essential for success of locum tenens programs.
临时替班计划由新墨西哥大学健康科学中心和东卡罗来纳大学医学院独立制定，以满足本州的医疗保健需求。这些计划代表了不同的模式，通过与州政府代表和机构合作，为农村和医疗服务不足地区的医疗机构提供临时替班服务。各计划之间的差异包括运营年限、提供覆盖的天数、所涉及的学习者和提供者类型、资金来源、计划成本以及机构支持程度。这些计划共同的有益成果包括为运营困难的医疗机构提供覆盖、为临时替班提供者提供农村医学培训、招募医生到农村执业地点以及改善与计划合作伙伴的关系。充足的资金和机构支持对于临时替班计划的成功至关重要。
