Most healthcare staffing agency provided through a person's work is provided through managed care organizations which pay much lower prices for medical services than an individual would if they paid out of pocket.

The reason that many people choose to do this is because it allows them to see how the physician interacts with the other physicians and medical staffing as well is with patients.
