Mint Physician Staffing Enhances Hospital and Telemedicine Coverage During the COVID-19 Outbreak
March 19, 2020 (Houston, TX)
Our Commitment
As the global effects of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) continue to evolve, Mint Physician Staffing remains committed to providing physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. Hospitals, Urgent Care Clinics and Telemedicine providers are urged to contact us to help fulfill their staffing needs amid the coronavirus outbreak.
We Have Physicians
As the demand for healthcare services continues to grow during these trying times, Mint’s leadership team has worked closely with the physician consulting team to coordinate outreach to our database of almost 300,000 clinicians for their availability based on client needs, specialty, and state licenses. Mint has already identified a number of physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners who are ready and willing to travel in order to supplement staffing shortages that are facing facilities across the country. Additionally, we’ve also taken precautionary measures by actively recruiting telemedicine physicians throughout the United States for remote work, including in states where license requirements have been removed.
As an elite medical staffing agency, we take the responsibility of booking travel for our clients. To assuage providers who are concerned about flying, we are taking a credit from the airline and asking these providers to travel by rental car to and from assignment, even if the distance is significant.
Stuart McKelvey, President of Mint Physician Staffing, commented:
Every member of our Mint Physician Staffing family takes the greatest pride in the role we play on behalf of your facility and patients. We are reaching out to all our confirmed physicians and advanced practitioners to reiterate the shared commitment we have to facilities and patients. Thanks to a robust suite of cloud-based technologies, Mint is capable of efficiently maintaining our workflows and processes throughout this event from recruiting, credentialing, payroll and beyond. Hospitals, clinics, nurses and physicians can continue to rely on us as our commitment to our clients remains as steadfast as ever.
Please reach out to us for your medical staffing needs, including telemedicine, hospitalists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and emergency room physicians.

In October of 2008, Stuart acquired the assets of Prime Staff—a Houston-based locum tenens company with a successful 12-year track record of placing physicians throughout the southeastern United States. After an overhaul of the business and re-branding to Mint Physician Staffing, the company has since quadrupled in size in terms of both employee count and revenue. As President, Stuart manages the company on a daily basis. He is purely a private individual investor and is not affiliated with any other company or private equity investor.
