Tusk Enterprises Launches Primary Care Division

Tusk Enterprises and its Rhino Medical Services and Hospitalists Plus companies serve more than 1,000 health care businesses, including some of the nation’s busiest hospitals. Rhino’s new primary care division focuses on placements of primary care physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

Arlington, TX, November 07, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Tusk Enterprises, which includes Rhino Medical Services and Hospitalists Plus health care staffing companies, recently launched a primary care division. Under Rhino, the division focuses on locum tenens (temporary) staffing and permanent placements of primary care physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

Tusk’s client roster continues to grow, said Joseph Brunson, the Arlington, Texas-based firm’s founder and chairman. More than 1,000 health care businesses in the U.S., including some of the busiest hospitals, call on Tusk’s companies to fill vacancies.

“Placements of extremely qualified primary care physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants are more important than ever,” Brunson said. “The health care industry finds itself dealing with both an aging patient population and a sudden surge of newly insured patients.

“With a database of more than 40,000 health care providers, Rhino’s primary care division finds the best professionals for each client. In most cases, candidates are presented within 48 hours.”

Rhino provides locum tenens and permanent staffing of physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners and certified registered nurse anesthetists. H+ provides locum tenens and permanent staff physicians and advanced practice providers who specialize in treating hospitalized patients.

Deric Gardner, former president of H+, oversees the new division. His new title is vice president of primary care. Gardner joined Tusk in 2006 and was LocumLife magazine’s Recruiter of the Year in 2010. He resides in Trophy Club, Texas.

“Primary care providers represent a great community of experience and knowledge that deserves a dedicated focus,” Gardner said. “It’s a highly sought-after group of health care providers.”

Brunson will announce H+’s new leader soon.

Brunson established Tusk in 2003. The company now boasts 27 employees and includes other offices in Amarillo, Texas, and Tulsa, Okla.

Tusk also earned a place on this year’s Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies. It is Tusk’s first year on the magazine’s prestigious list.
