About this episode
Kaitlyn Kruczynski discusses the impact of the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact on physicians' work-life balance and access to care.
Today’s episode features Kaitlyn Kruczynski, a senior locum tenens consultant who joins us to share how the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact (IMLC) is reshaping the way physicians work. With nearly eight years of experience supporting general, trauma, and vascular surgeons, Kaitlyn explains how the compact helps physicians reduce burnout, gain flexibility, and reach communities that may not otherwise have access to care. She breaks down the IMLC in simple terms and offers practical advice for anyone considering it. From eligibility to renewal reminders, Kaitlyn shares why so many physicians tell her they wish they’d applied sooner. Interested in applying for the IMLC?
