Why It Matters

Licensing is broken for everyone involved.

It's slow, expensive, and nobody wants to own it. This partnership fixes it — for the employer and for the clinician.

🏢 For Employers
Expand into new states faster

License existing clinicians instead of hiring new ones. Enter a new state market in ~6 weeks, not 6 months.

Cut the cost of compliance

Partner rates are lower than what your clinicians would pay on their own — and renewal tracking is included.

Offer a benefit that actually retains people

Licensing support is a known gap. Offering it as a perk shows up in why clinicians join — and why they stay.

Zero operational lift to activate

One partnership agreement. One employer code. No minimum commitments, no new systems to manage.

🩺 For Clinicians

01

Rates they can't get anywhere else

The partner rate is lower than DirectShifts' own standard pricing — even for a single state, no bundle required.

02

Someone else handles the paperwork

Submit once via the DirectShifts form. The team manages submissions, tracks state board progress, and follows up.

03

Never miss a renewal

Renewal deadlines are tracked automatically. Clinicians get reminders and re-application support — no lapsed licenses.

04

Practice anywhere in the US

All 50 states covered. Multi-state, IMLC, NLC compact, DEA registration — everything handled end-to-end.

Partner Pricing

Deeper discounts than going direct

The partner rate beats our own standard pricing — even the maximum 50-state bundle discount — for any number of states. State board fees are always separate.

They enter the code, pick their states, and submit. Single or multi-state, IMLC, NLC, DEA — all handled end-to-end.

04

Licensed & Compliant

DirectShifts manages submissions, tracks progress, handles renewals. Your clinicians stay compliant without the admin headache.

Who It's For

Built for every healthcare employer

If you employ clinicians who need licenses — in one state or twenty — this partnership delivers immediate value.

Telehealth Companies

Multi-state reach requires multi-state licenses. License your existing clinicians instead of hiring more. Enter new markets in weeks, not months.

Hospital Systems

Centralize licensing for employed physicians and APPs. Cut credentialing overhead and stay ahead of renewal deadlines across facilities.

Staffing Agencies

Get clinicians credentialed and placed faster. Use the employer-enabled mode to offer a benefit without adding it to your cost structure.

Private Practices

Offer a tangible clinician benefit without building a credentialing team. Keep your providers licensed and compliant without the admin lift.

Why It Works

Three problems solved with one partnership

If you employ clinicians who need licenses — in one state or twenty — this partnership delivers immediate value.

Faster market expansion

License your existing clinicians in new states instead of recruiting. For telehealth, every additional state license is direct revenue. Do it in under 6 weeks.

A benefit clinicians actually feel

Licensing is a known pain point. Offering discounted, white-glove support is a perk that shows up in recruiting conversations and exit interviews — for the right reasons.

Compliance without the overhead

DirectShifts tracks renewal deadlines, sends reminders, and handles re-applications. Your team stops chasing state boards and starts focusing on patient care.
