Your HR team treats the nurse exactly as they would any other new employee: payroll, benefits enrollment, org chart placement, and performance review cycle. There is no agency paperwork running in parallel because no agency is holding the employment relationship.

Global MedTeam uses a one-time placement fee, not an ongoing markup. You pay once to bring the nurse on as your direct employee, and from there, you carry a standard salary and benefits line, the same as any permanent hire. There is no per-hour agency margin stacked on top for the life of a contract, which is what makes direct hire more predictable to budget over time.

The nurse is not charged a recruitment fee. The placement fee is paid entirely by the hospital, which is what keeps Global MedTeam clear of the worker-paid-fee model that creates compliance exposure.

Onboarding has two halves, and the line between them is clear.

Global MedTeam handles:

  • Licensure support, including NCLEX and credentialing
  • Relocation, including housing and getting settled locally
  • The first year of settling in, including community and local resources for the nurse and family

Your hospital handles:

  • Onboarding into your specific unit, team, and clinical systems
  • Orientation, training, and competencies, exactly as you do for any new hire
  • Day-to-day management once the nurse starts

In short, Global MedTeam gets the nurse to your door ready and supported. You bring them onto your unit the same way you would any employee, because with direct hire, that is exactly what they are.

Direct hire pricing follows a placement fee model rather than an ongoing markup, since there is no staffing contract to bill against.

Because international recruitment is not a same-quarter hire. Hospitals that begin the process now have a stable pipeline when the gap actually arrives. Hospitals that wait are negotiating from a position of urgency, against every other hospital trying to do the same thing at the same time.
