The StatDoctor Difference: How We Compare to Traditional Locum Agencies

Finding locum work in Australia can be complicated. Traditional locum agencies often charge high fees, have slow communication, and limit shift choice. StatDoctor offers a modern solution designed for doctors who want control, flexibility, and transparency.

Direct Access to Shifts

Unlike traditional agencies, StatDoctor allows doctors to view and book shifts directly with the healthcare facility. You no longer rely on intermediaries or wait for approvals, reducing delays and missed opportunities.

Real-Time Availability

StatDoctor displays real-time shift availability across multiple hospitals and clinics. You can quickly see which shifts are available, their location, and pay rate, and book them instantly through the app.

Flexible Work Management

The StatDoctor platform lets you track your bookings, roster, and payments in one place. This simplifies the administrative burden of locum work and gives you full control over your schedule.

Better insurance and contracts

As our doctors sign contracts directly with healthcare facilities, this ensures you are covered by that hospital's insurance including indemnity (you still need your own) and workers compensation. This also means you have the power to negotiate better terms, or a long-term gig without the hospital having to pay an agency any extra. 

Transparency and Fairness

With StatDoctor, doctors have clear information about pay, shift details, and contract terms. This level of transparency is rare in traditional locum agencies.
