Parrot.MD Redefining Locum staffing by connecting hospitals directly with clinicians. Fast, flexible, and transparent.

Parrot.MD is simplifying healthcare staffing through a direct, tech-enabled platform that
seamlessly connects hospitals with local, high-quality clinicians for locum and PRN coverage. Our innovative solution eliminates the inefficiencies and excessive costs associated with
traditional locum agencies, ensuring faster staffing with quality care at a lower cost.

Rural staffing is local - even when the organization is part of something bigger.

Every rural hospital has its own team, workflow, culture, and community. That means the right clinician needs to fit more than an open date on the schedule.

Parrot.MD helps hospitals extend beyond their existing staffing bench by connecting them with local and regional clinicians who can become part of a facility-aligned POD - and return when the fit is right.

More familiarity.
More continuity.
More staffing options without losing the local connection.

Extend your reach. Keep the fit local.

What is your staffing dollar actually buying?

Hospital leaders understandably watch the total cost of locum coverage.

But the invoice total doesn’t always tell the whole story.

A better question may be:
How much coverage are we getting for the dollars we’re already spending?

In one October 2025 rural Critical Access Hospital comparison, a similar monthly spend covered 5 twelve-hour shifts through an agency model versus 8 through Parrot.MD’s platform-fee model.

That translated to approximately $9,796 vs. $6,072 per shift - about 38% lower cost per shift in this comparison.

Results will vary, but the comparison highlights another useful lens: coverage per dollar - not just invoice total.

When staffing dollars go further, hospitals have more options for keeping critical shifts covered.

Flexible work should feel like a choice - not a negotiation.

For physicians, flexibility should mean more than simply having open days on the calendar.

It should mean quickly seeing what’s available, understanding the rate, evaluating the location and facility, and choosing the shifts that fit your life and your career.

- Less back-and-forth.
- More visibility.
- More control.

And when you find a facility that feels like a great fit, flexible work should make it easier to return, build familiarity, and develop stronger working relationships over time.

That’s the kind of autonomy Parrot.MD was built to support.

Your schedule. Your rate. Your career.

Traditional locums filled shifts. Modern staffing builds relationships.

Filling an open shift matters. But great staffing is about more than finding someone to cover the schedule.

Hospitals benefit from clinicians who know the team, understand the facility, and want to come back. Clinicians benefit from greater flexibility, transparency, and control over where and when they work.

That’s the kind of staffing model we believe healthcare needs more of:
- More continuity.
- More familiarity.
- More flexibility.
- Stronger relationships.

At Parrot.MD, we’re helping hospitals and clinicians connect more directly - and making it easier for great matches to become lasting working relationships.

Because the best staffing relationship shouldn’t start over with every shift.

Coverage matters.
Continuity matters more.

For rural hospitals and small emergency teams, filling a shift is only part of the picture.

Local, known clinicians can reduce disruption over time and help teams work with more familiarity and less friction.

That was one of the clearest themes in our research.

Coverage is one challenge.

Churn is another.

When new clinicians rotate in constantly, hospital teams often absorb the hidden work:
• onboarding time
• workflow variation
• handoff disruption

In independent research interviews with rural and community hospital leaders, one message came through clearly: continuity supports operational stability.

That’s why Parrot is built around a facility-dedicated clinician pod designed to reduce re-learning and disruption over time.

When coverage is urgent, the hardest part isn’t finding a clinician - it’s comparing options fast enough to act.

A simple reframing for finance + ops teams:

Clinician pay (the agreed rate) + a consistent platform fee (a separate line item).

Why it matters: you can finally evaluate options apples-to-apples - without agency markup embedded inside the hourly rate.

Transparency isn’t a “nice-to-have.”
It’s the start of control.

Rural hospitals are under enormous pressure to maintain coverage while controlling costs and maintaining continuity of care.

Our new research brief, developed in collaboration with the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota, takes a closer look at how staffing models can evolve to better support rural healthcare systems.

Inside the report, we explore:
• The hidden costs of traditional locum staffing
• Why flexibility and continuity are both essential
• Real-world examples of alternative staffing approaches

If you’re involved in rural healthcare leadership, operations, or workforce planning, this research offers practical insights worth exploring.
