Nurse Practitioners are experts in clinical care, but most are often novices when it comes to business, marketing, financial management and working outside mainstream healthcare settings. There is little focus on the business side within the curriculum of current nurse practitioner education. However, these skills are essential for nurse practitioners who want to grow, innovate and work in independent practice. Whether you are ready to open your own practice or enhance your current business capabilities and skills, join us and learn from Dr. Wendy Wright’s experience building her business over the last 15 years. She will share tips for effective and accurate billing and coding, mistakes to avoid in contract negotiation, and documentation that stands up against malpractice claims, and much more!

We hope you will choose to participate!
