Job boards show you 20% the market. Tessellate shows you 100%.

We index every physician-employing site in the U.S. — hospitals, private groups, telehealth, hybrids, and sites that never post online — so you see every viable option, not just who is paying to be seen.

Contract-agnostic coverage means your options aren’t capped by job board listings or agency contracts.

Methods: how we count

Evidence-based matching.

We match you on what actually matters — call, culture, compensation structure, autonomy, and 130+ alignment criteria — not just specialty and location.

Total privacy. Zero spam.

You stay fully anonymous until you choose to connect.
No recruiter outreach. No profile blasting. No surprises.

A career advocate in your corner.

A conflict-free physician advocate — helping you compare roles, verify fit, and navigate contracts on your terms.

Make your next move on your terms.

See the full market, stay anonymous while you verify fit, and connect only when you choose.
Full-market visibility
We map real physician employers across the market—so you're not limited to whatever hits job boards this week.
Privacy + control
Explore options and ask questions without your name, contact information, or NPI being shared. You choose when an intro happens.
Fit, verified early
Validate the stuff that actually matters—autonomy, call, workflow, team culture, comp structure—before you waste time.
For physicians who hate the noise and never want to settle.

Time-by-design: How we measure

Map what matters
Your blueprint in ~15 minutes.
We pre-build your profile from your NPI. You confirm details, set non-negotiables (schedule, scope, comp, culture), and weight what matters most.
Preview aligned options
See the market before any calls.
We surface high-fit roles and sites — each with a Fit Score, top “why this matches,” and any unknowns flagged so you know what to verify.
Quality without the chase
You stay anonymous — we get answers.
Choose from templated or custom questions (call, EMR, comp band, team structure). We do the outreach on your behalf while you remain fully private.
Move when you’re ready
One-click apply with Fast Pass.
Attest once; we submit a packet‑complete intro, coordinate interviews, and prep side‑by‑side terms.

How we make money

Physicians: Free.

Why it's free: Employers fund Tessellate because transparency + measurement reduces vacancy costs and early turnover.

Our rules (non-negotiable):

  • We only share your identity with explicit consent
  • We never sell physician data
  • We never charge employers based on "who you are"
  • You can pause or delete anytime.
For Physicians

For Employers:

Employers: Subscription (measurement, not transactions)

  • Verified unit profile + "what's missing" gaps
  • Funnel analytics (interest → apply → interview → hire)
  • Benchmarks vs peer units/markets

Conflict-of-interest safeguards

  • Consent gate: we never forward a physician’s profile with their explicit OK.
  • Fixed model: economics don’t change for a “more valuable” candidate.
  • Transparency: this policy is public; if we change it, we’ll date-stamp the update.

What we never do

  • Sell physician or health care organization data.
  • Forward profiles without consent.
  • Set fees differently per candidate.

For employers & recruiters

Our job is to reduce chasing and improve show-rates, not to replace your team. We route through your workflow and provide structured hand-offs.

Consent & Data:

Private by default. We only share a physician’s profile when they fully approve.

Your data serves you. We use it to match and advise, not to sell.

You’re in control. Export, pause, or delete anytime.

Questions or requests? Contact privacy@t8health.com

What “consent” means here

  • Physicians will see the employer name and role (along with all the information they need to make a decision) before any intro.
  • Physicians can approve or decline with one click.
  • Signals & insights: reasons for “yes/no”, funnel health, time-to-first interview.

Tessellate Assist (optional)

If enabled, we pre-fill applications, attach physician documents, and submit after the physician review & attestation. Physicians can revoke this at any time.

How we use your data

  • To match physicians to aligned options and help them compare offers and trade-offs.
  • To improve recommendations (e.g., which attributes drive acceptance).
  • Never to sell or broker data.

What we collect

  • Profiles and preferences, work history, site/location interests, interview signals, offer attributes.
  • No PHI. Sensitive documents (e.g., licenses) are stored securely if/when a physician chooses to upload them (optional).

Access & security basics

  • Access is role-based and audited.
  • Data in transit and at rest is encrypted.
  • We delete data on verified request and honor retention limits.

Physician Bill of Rights

Your work should fit your life.

Methods - how we count physician-employing sites

425,712

as of 9/8/25

  • We index physician-employing and contracting sites, not every healthcare business.
  • We exclude places physicians don’t practice (e.g., pharmacies, labs, transports, imaging-only centers, admin buildings).
  • We deduplicate by location and ownership, label our evidence quality (Verified / Inferred / Missing), and date-stamp updates.
See Your Options

How we make money

Consent & Data

What we count (our “unit” = a real hiring site)

  • Definition: a distinct hiring site where physicians (MD/DO) deliver care or are scheduled to deliver care (e.g., hospitals, hospital owned clinics, ambulatory/ASC, urgent care, academic clinics, community health centers, employer operated clinics).
  • Why “site”, not just “employer”: the same health system may operate dozens of locations with different call burdens, schedules, and teams – which matter for fit. We model at site level so a physician’s options reflect real world differences.

What we don’t

  • Out of scope: pharmacies, labs, transportation services, imaging‑only centers, and administrative buildings.
  • Rationale: physicians typically don’t practice or make attending‑level decisions in those locations. They create noise without improving match quality.

Deduplicate & canonicalize

  • Location first: normalize addresses, geocode, and cluster records within a site boundary.
  • Ownership next: resolve parent/child relationships (system ↔ site) to avoid double‑counting.
  • One site, one record: when a campus has multiple buildings but one physician schedule, we represent it once; if buildings have distinct staffing/schedules, we separate them.
  • We track lineage: every merge/split is auditable internally; we publish the current canonical site only.

Specialty tagging

  • Verified tags: a site lists, staffs, or schedules physicians in a specialty via a current, independent source.
  • Inferred tags: strong signals (e.g., service line, clinic type) imply a specialty; we label these Inferred until verified.
  • Missing: we don’t guess. If the specialty can’t be supported, we show Missing and invite updates.

Evidence quality & freshness (what the label means)

  • Verified‑Direct: confirmed by a primary source (e.g., health system/department) within 30 days.
  • Verified: confirmed by two independent sources within 6 months.
  • Inferred: modeled from secondary signals; age‑stamped and reviewed against norms.
  • Missing: not enough quality signal yet.
  • Each site shows “Last checked (RELATIVE DATE)” so the physician can judge freshness.

Limitations & how to help

  • The map isn’t perfect. Some sites change rapidly or with limited public signal. We mark those attributes Missing and invite corrections. See something off? Send a note; we’ll review and update.
We never share a physician’s data or profile without their consent.  Data exists to match and advise – never sold.

Time-by-design: How we measure

We count your active time only. We don’t count interviews, employer wait time, or the background work Tessellate does on your behalf.

Final alignment check

We handle the rest

Data prefill/enrichment, credential parsing, profile dedupe—done by us.

Market scan across U.S. sites, dedupe, evidence tagging, fit‑score compute, and role‑card assembly—our background work.

Outreach, follow‑ups, identity shielding, and answer consolidation—we do that.

Packet assembly, form prefill, document attach, ATS/HRIS submission—handled by us.

Homework or research; we compile the prep. (Interview duration itself is not counted anywhere.)

Back‑and‑forth scheduling, ICS invites, panel coordination, and reschedules—done by us.

Contract parsing, benchmark retrieval, red‑flag detection, and summary packaging—handled by us.

Post‑acceptance check‑ins (30/90 days), onboarding coordination—we manage those.

Why this step can be ≤15m
