The cost of waiting to fill a GP role
Every month a GP room stays empty, a practice loses a month of billings it will never get back. Here is what the search costs the longer it runs — and how to stop the clock.
Common questions
- How much does it cost to leave a GP position open for months?
- If a full-time GP chair is worth around $200,000 a year, an open position costs roughly $16,667 a month. At three months that is about $50,000 — more than a typical agency placement fee — and at six months around $100,000.
- How long does it take an agency to fill a GP role?
- Agency placements commonly take around three months and cost $15,000–$40,000 for a single permanent doctor. On a direct marketplace your listing is live the same day and you can approach doctors yourself.
- Can I hold off paying until a doctor starts?
- Yes. Join Heart Bridge Health before 1 May 2027 and the $10,000 Annual Licence is held in escrow — nothing is payable until your first doctor actually commences.
