Hi Sonia,

Congratulations on your California practice!

The most important thing you can do is to research the area you are going into and look carefully at the SOP for Florida. It can be done, you just need to be aware of the challenges NPs in Florida have.

Best wishes!

Barbara

I am looking into starting my own practice. I am very nervous about doing this there is so much to know. My speciality is sleep disorders and pulmonary. I dont see any NPs out there that are sleepNPs. I am living in Montana and looking into moving to a rural area. Are there any incentives for us to start up a practice in this type of area? Your site is great and has alot of good information.
Thanks Mary

Hello; I’m currrently working on getting a new practice up and going. I’m in Charlotte NC. I have my business name paddened already with the state of NC and business license through the BON. That is the requirement here in NC. I am currently in the process of credentialing with Medicaid, Medicare, United Healthcare and Aetna, for starters and getting my Collaborative Agreement together.Well, actually I have a Medicare number already through a job I decided not to take, hopefully I can use the same number for my business? I also have my tax ID number. In essence; there is so much to do but my zeal out-weighs the stress. I extremely NERVOUS though…I must admit! I wish you all well with your practice’s. Have a blessed holiday & New Year! Any additional comments/leads would be highly appreciated. Babara; I haven’t forgotten about re-joining. I plan to do that in January 2012. Blessings,

Hello,
I have home health service company incorporated in the state of Texas but never start the business. Now that I am FNP-BC, is it possible to use the same company to start housecall business? Also, I need information on how to get it start. Open to any suggestions.

Barbara C. Phillips, NP December 17, 2011 at 10:33 am

You might be able to, depending on the rules in your state, you’ll need to check with whoever controls corporations in your state in order to change any names.

As far as starting a practice, regardless of what you are doing there are 7 broad steps to doing so. You’ll find more info on this video: http://npbusiness.org/startup-video/.

The NPs I work with in Texas tell me one of their biggest challenges is finding and keep a collaborating physician, so you’ll want to make sure you have one or even two firmly in place.

I am NP and thinking of buying a practice in California, which is running for last 20 years.
Two questions:
1. Do I need a physician to be co owner of the practice
2. Which insurances will pay me 100% against my billing and which will not.

Regards,
Shireen

Barbara C. Phillips, NP May 5, 2012 at 6:35 am

Shireen,

In California, if you want to own a “medical corporation”, you will have to have a physician own the business @ 51%. However, if you create a “nursing corporation” you can own it. Of course, you still need a collaborating physician in CA.

There is no way for me to know which insurance companies will pay you what. They are different from company to company and location to location.

Best,

Barbara

Jacqueline D. Bredehoft, PMHNP-BC May 17, 2012 at 11:20 am

Hello, how does one establish a nursing corporation? What distinguishes a nursing corporation from a medical corporation?

Just a couple of questions of the many I will have.

Regards,
Jackie
