Pros
Autonomy, nice folks in Management. Patients are by and large hugely appreciative of examinations and advice. I hear almost daily that I spend more time teaching and examining them than all other NP's sent prior and their doctors as well. Patients also happy that we as NP's keep up with latest evidence based recommendations.
Cons
As above. Advance Health has increased daily visits from 5 to 7 patients per day which means that all charting to finish out patient plans in digital chart system done at end of day. This adds 2-4 hours routinely to a 10 hour day. NO breaks put into day for charting, bathroom, barely a lunch. This is EVERY day unless a patient cancels. With added ICD10 code requirements getting hairy each chart much more difficult to complete despite efforts to remedy this by coding team. Not paying me for my quality and experience at a 14 hour pay rate. Add another 30k then you'll be reimbursing me properly.
