Round Up: Innovative Uses of Non-Physician Practitioners (NPs and PAs) in the ENT Practice

Many practices are hiring nurse practitioners and physician assistants, collectively referred to as non-physician providers (NPPs). But most aren't quite sure how to optimize the skills and value of these clinicians, which will be increasingly needed with the coverage expansion under the Affordable Care Act. Integrated well, NPPs can help your practice increase patient access, boost physician productivity, and generate new revenue. Come to this session and hear from AOA members on how they use NPPs effectively and share your best practices as well.
