Rural Physicians Group

Rural Physicians Group (RPG) is a healthcare solution provider that specializes in staffing and managing hospitalist and surgical programs for rural and community hospitals across the United States. The company addresses the physician shortage in rural areas by deploying clinicians who reside in the community during their multi-day shifts, ensuring consistent and high-quality patient care. RPG's service lines include hospitalist medicine, general surgery, orthopedic surgery, and emergency medicine. By providing dedicated onsite coverage, the company helps small hospitals reduce patient transfers, improve clinical outcomes, and maintain financial viability. In 2020, RPG was acquired by Health Carousel, a leading healthcare staffing and workforce solutions firm.
