NALTO’s Mission

The purpose of the National Association of Locum Tenens Organizations (NALTO) is to provide a foundation of industry standards and ethical guidelines for companies offering locum tenens recruitment services. These guidelines provide the building blocks for relationships between NALTO members and their clients.

In addition, we are committed to continuous education for locum tenens physicians, recruiters, and clients. We provide a forum for the exchange of ideas about standards of the industry, changes in the locum tenens marketplace, and ethical treatment of physicians and clients alike.

We further commit to a leadership role in developing a positive image of our industry, an increased market share for our members, and a peer review process based on excellence, honesty, and fairness.
