Direct Answer

What does a psychiatrist staffing agency do?

A psychiatrist staffing agency recruits physicians into a specialty with more demand than supply, and manages the credentialing that decides when they can actually see patients. GlobalCybers places them permanently rather than as locum coverage. We verify the state medical licence with the board, ABPN certification or eligibility, DEA registration including buprenorphine prescribing where relevant, and run an NPDB query. For telepsychiatry we confirm licensure in each state where patients are located, since that is what governs, not where the physician sits. RPO at $2,999/mo, or Direct Hire at 12-20% on a successful hire.

Covering clinics with locums?

Need a permanent psychiatrist instead of rotating locum sessions?

Psychiatry is the specialty where continuity is most obviously clinical: patients disclose more to a physician they know, and medication management works better when someone remembers the last three adjustments. Locum sessions cannot deliver that at any price. A permanent hire is a one-time fee and gives a panel the same doctor twice.

Credential Verification

Every Licence Verified Before Delivery

Unverified psychiatrists never appear on a shortlist. We check directly against the issuing authority, not self-reported documentation.

Licensure, ABPN and DEA

The state medical licence is verified with the board, ABPN certification or eligibility confirmed, and DEA registration checked including controlled-substance authority for buprenorphine prescribing where the role requires it. An NPDB query and malpractice review complete the picture before shortlist.

State boardABPNDEANPDB

Telepsychiatry licensure by patient state

In telepsychiatry the governing licence is the one in the patient's state, not the physician's. We record every state a candidate is licensed in and map it against where your patients actually are, because that mapping determines the panel a physician can serve from day one.

Patient-state licensureMulti-state mapTelehealth rules

Payer credentialing readiness

In outpatient behavioural health, payer credentialing is usually the longest pole and the one that delays revenue rather than the start date. We prepare the documentation set at shortlist so your credentialing team is not waiting on a CV, a CAQH profile or a work-history gap explanation weeks later.

Employer Value

What an Unfilled Psychiatrist Seat Costs, and How We Cut It

An unfilled psychiatry post closes intake, lengthens a waiting list that was already long, and pushes patients toward emergency departments that are worse settings for them.

48 hrs
Days, not weeks, to fill

A verified 3-5 shortlist of psychiatrists lands within 48 hours of a complete brief, instead of the weeks the seat stays uncovered.

100%
Credentialing prepared up front

Licence, ABPN, DEA and payer documentation are prepared at shortlist, so the gap between offer and first clinic is measured in weeks rather than seasons.

$0
Upfront on Direct Hire

Pay only when you hire, at 12-20% of first-year salary. RPO is a flat $2,999/month for continuous healthcare hiring, with no per-hire fee.

90 days
A bad fit is not a sunk cost

If a placed psychiatrist leaves or is let go within 90 days, we source a replacement free under both models.

Screening & Compliance

Every Psychiatrist, Fully Vetted

Before a psychiatrist reaches your shortlist we confirm the licence, safety cards, and right to work, so you take on a fully de-risked hire.

State licence & credentials

Every state licence and certification confirmed active against the issuing authority, never self-reported.

Safety cards

OSHA 10/30 and trade safety cards (e.g. NFPA 70E) verified against DOL-authorised provider records.

Background & drug screening

County, state, and federal checks run FCRA-compliant, plus 5- or 10-panel drug screening aligned to your jobsite policy.

Right-to-work & E-Verify

Form I-9 completed and E-Verify confirmed before start date, so every placement is work-authorized.

Insurance & liability. GlobalCybers carries general and professional liability cover, and every direct-hire placement goes onto your payroll as a W-2 employee, keeping worker-classification risk inside a compliant process.

FAQ

Psychiatrist Staffing Agency FAQ

How quickly can you deliver a psychiatrist shortlist?

A verified shortlist of 3-5 psychiatrists is delivered within 48 hours of a complete brief. We need the setting, the population, whether telepsychiatry is involved and in which states, and the call expectations. Primary-source verification begins immediately.

Do you place locum psychiatrists?

No. GlobalCybers places permanent psychiatrists only, into your organisation or group. Locum tenens and per-session coverage are outside our model.

How does licensure work for telepsychiatry?

The governing licence is the one in the state where the patient is located at the time of the encounter, not where the physician sits. So a psychiatrist licensed in three states can serve patients in those three states only. We map every candidate's licensure against your patient footprint and tell you what panel they can serve from day one and what additional licensure would open up.

What do psychiatrists earn nationally?

Per BLS OEWS May 2025, psychiatrists (SOC 29-1223) earn a national median of $281,870 across 27,980 jobs, with about 900 openings a year and 6.1% projected growth through 2034. Community behavioural health and academic settings typically pay below private practice and telepsychiatry, and non-compensation factors such as caseload caps and administrative support decide more acceptances than the salary does.
