PracticeMatch
Stands out: The Pinpoint profiles come from phone interviews that capture more than 70 data points, including where a physician wants to live, whether they will relocate and spouse or family ties, which is the information physician recruiters usually spend the first call finding out. The vendor says the candidates are exclusive to its clients and are not shared with third-party recruiters, and it adds daily interest leads from its own job board traffic.
Watch out: Nothing is priced publicly, and the databases, job boards, outreach tools and career fairs are sold as separate products, so expect a bundle negotiation rather than one plan. The interviewed Pinpoint file is about 480,000 physicians; the multi-million record files (MedTies, WorkTies, HCPTies) are compiled from state board, NPI and Medicare data, not interviews. There is no public API; integrations are with named ATS and CRM systems.
Not the right fit for
- Non-healthcare recruiting
- Small teams wanting a published monthly price and self-serve sign up
- Buyers who only want raw contact data at the lowest cost per record
Profiles Database
Stands out: It concentrates on the graduating class: recruiters can pull entire classes of residents and fellows by specialty and training program, then filter by ties to a state through home, training location, practice preference or spouse. That is the sort that matters most when a rural or hard-to-fill location is recruiting new physicians. Data comes from its own sourcing staff near St. Louis, not third-party or offshore vendors.
Watch out: It is owned by PracticeMatch, so a team already buying PracticeMatch databases should check for overlap before adding it. Pricing is not published. The 4.8 million healthcare provider file is a broad lead list across 70 professions, a different product from the interviewed resident data, and the vendor documents no ATS integrations or API.
Not the right fit for
- Non-healthcare recruiting
- Teams already paying for PracticeMatch databases with overlapping coverage
- Buyers wanting published self-serve pricing
