Overview
It is every APRNs fiscal responsibility to understand the revenue stream within a practice, whether employed or owner of a practice. APRN education focuses on the clinical aspects of training and little on the business side of generating revenue for a practice by maximizing correct coding and documentation for APRN services. Coding and billing can make an NP visible to payers, which can enhance value. Learn how to reduce the likelihood of denials, which affect the bottom line. Learn the tools to enhance documentation and reduce the burden to have more time with patients and better work-life balance. APRNs who can accurately document and code their services bring value to a practice and add to the evidence base for the quality and cost-effectiveness of APRN care.
