What RPH on the Go does

RPh on the Go (legal entity: RPh on the Go USA, LLC) is a US-based staffing agency that operates exclusively within the pharmacy profession. The company has been operating for nearly 40 years and places licensed pharmacists and pharmacy technicians with healthcare employers across all 50 states, serving settings that include acute-care hospitals, retail pharmacies, long-term care facilities, home infusion providers, mail-order/central fill operations, and federal healthcare facilities (including VA and military sites via a General Services Administration contract).

The company's product surface is centered on a single professional-services staffing franchise, supported by a website-based job board that organizes listings by role (e.g., pharmacist, technician, director of pharmacy), engagement type (contract, contract-to-hire, per-diem/PRN, travel, direct hire), setting (hospital, retail, LTC, government/federal, telepharmacy, veterinary), and geography. Pharmacy professionals apply through a self-serve "Quick Apply" portal; employers request coverage by phone (800-553-7359) or via a web form. Workforce administration runs on PrismHR for onboarding, benefits, and payroll of the contingent workforce. A dedicated Quality Assurance & Compliance Department conducts monthly license checks and ongoing performance evaluations on the candidate database. The company maintains a content/SEO marketing engine via its blog, LinkedIn, and other social channels targeting both candidates and employer clients.

RPh on the Go generates revenue through staffing placement fees billed to employer clients. It pursues a sales-led go-to-market, with dedicated account managers and recruiters engaging employers directly and operating as a national staffing intermediary between healthcare facilities and licensed pharmacy talent. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investor or parent company. No revenue figures, funding rounds, M&A activity, or leadership changes have been disclosed in available sources.

Direct peers

• Soliant Health: Healthcare staffing firm with a substantial pharmacy division placing pharmacists and technicians across contract, travel, per-diem, and direct-hire engagements. Directly comparable because it competes head-to-head in pharmacy staffing with a similar national footprint and engagement model.
• Aureus Medical Group: Healthcare staffing agency placing allied health professionals, including pharmacists and pharmacy technicians, in travel and direct-hire roles. Comparable business model and customer base (hospitals, health systems, retail pharmacies), competing for the same placement demand.
• Supplemental Health Care: Healthcare staffing firm offering pharmacy and allied health placements across contract, travel, per-diem, and permanent arrangements. Directly comparable model serving similar facility clients with similar engagement types.

Broad incumbents

• AMN Healthcare: Largest US healthcare staffing company, with a pharmacy and allied health division placing pharmacists and pharmacy technicians nationwide. A broader incumbent that overlaps with RPh on the Go's pharmacy staffing offering but competes from a much wider portfolio across nursing, allied, and locum tenens.
• Cross Country Healthcare: National healthcare staffing and workforce solutions provider whose allied health segment includes pharmacy staffing. Comparable because it serves similar hospital and health-system customers with temporary and permanent pharmacy placements, though it spans many other healthcare professions.
• CHG Healthcare: One of the largest US healthcare staffing companies, spanning nursing, allied, and locum tenens, with some pharmacy exposure. A broader incumbent that competes for the same hospital and health-system staffing budgets even where pharmacy is not its primary focus.
• HealthTrust Workforce Solutions: Healthcare staffing and workforce solutions arm affiliated with HCA, serving a large hospital network with pharmacy and clinical staffing. A broader incumbent that competes for hospital pharmacy staffing spend at scale, with the advantage of embedded demand.

Emerging players

• Aya Healthcare: Tech-enabled travel healthcare staffing platform that has expanded beyond nursing into allied health. Comparable because it represents the digital-first model that could erode traditional recruiter-led pharmacy staffing over time, and competes for the same healthcare facility customers.
• Vivian Health: Digital healthcare job marketplace for clinicians including pharmacy professionals, allowing facilities to post roles and candidates to apply directly. Comparable as an emerging distribution and matching model that competes with traditional staffing agencies on candidate acquisition and time-to-fill.
• Nomad Health: Online marketplace for travel healthcare staffing, initially nursing but expanding into allied and pharmacy roles. Comparable as a technology-led staffing alternative that could pressure traditional recruiter-led agencies on speed and cost.
