Do you know how to effectively incorporate the use of nonphysician providers in your practice?
Using NPP's in your practice can assist the practice in several ways, such as:

  • Increasing the practice’s profitability
  • Improving patient flow by allowing the physician to focus on more complex medical issues
  • Providing more free time for the physician to engage in other practice responsibilities

However, the benefits of using nonphysician providers are only maximized if their use is effectively coordinated with the physician.

Learn how to:

  • Coordinate nonphysician providers and physicians in your practice to attain the maximum benefits
  • Code for their services
  • Competitively compensate nonphysician providers
  • Use employee incentive programs to compliment your pay scales
