Thanks for hanging in there in the past few weeks since I’ve not updated here. Things have been busy in my practice, at home, and at NPBO.  I feel like the days are whizzing by. Can hardly believe it’s nearly mid May!

That said, I’m currently writing up some information on the upcoming Medicare cuts as well as on NPs experience with what appears to be a somewhat shady merchant credit card provider and will have those available to you by Monday.

Wishing all of you a happy, joyous season…however you celebrate!

We’ve gotten such great feedback both here on NPBusiness.ORG and in private emails. There is clearly a need for further information on this topic.  You can help shape what future of NPBusiness.ORG by taking part in a short 7 question survey. Be sure and share this link - the more NP’s that participate, the better!

I invite you to make sure you sign up for updates (sign up for the expanded directory if you have not already)…that way you’ll be among the first to see what’s coming over the next several weeks.

Thanks in advance for your particpation!
