Just Imagine …

• You alone decide how many patients you see each day and how much time you spend with them
• You choose which days of the week you're in the office and
• You alone decide how many hours you work each day

And …

You're finally free to give your patients the care they need without needless restrictions or limitations.

Now, can you see yourself in your own practice, enjoying a level of freedom that’s only possible when you’re ...  in your own practice?

A little over ten years ago I decided to start my own practice; well, life decided for me. You see, one day I realized I just couldn't stay where I was anymore! 

• All my attempts to change how I worked in this office fell on deaf ears.
• I was tired of working for someone who didn’t have my or my patients' best interest at heart.
• And it bothered me to see so many patients going without the care they so desperately needed.

I realized that I could do better, far better that this!

And that’s when I got busy; I was determined to start my own practice just as soon as possible.

I Was Trying To Figure Out:

• What’s the first step I needed to take?
• How much would it cost me?
• Where would find the money?
• How would the billing work?
• Should I outsource or keep it in-house?
• What about hiring staff? What should I look for?
• How much should I charge?
• Would I need a permit or license to get started?
• What’s a business structure and would I need one?

These were just some of the questions I had. I needed to find answers and I needed to find them fast... 

Looking Back…

Needless to say, I made plenty mistakes when I got started. 

Today, I realize how different it could have been! If I'd had some help from the get go, things could have been so much easier.

The entire business building process would have been faster and I could have started my practice much sooner. Not to mention the amount of money and aggravation I could have saved myself!

It took me years to develop the insights and strategies I’m sharing in the NPBO™ Practice Startup System 2.0. Now anyone can easily start a practice by simply following my proven system.

By now, many Nurse Practitioners have gone through the program. They’ve implemented the system and have started their own practices. 

Here is what two of your colleagues have said about the NPBO™ Practice Startup System 2.0.

Our program is a proven blueprint designed to help clinicians like you get started in their own practice. I’ve been teaching it for many years, keeping it current and up-to-date. 

Now let me introduce you to the NPBO™ Practice Startup System 2.0. Let me walk you through the program so you can see how it can benefit you when starting  your practice.

But before I get to the details, let me be frank with you.

While our program is a proven blueprint, teaching you everything you need to know, it will only work as long as you do the work and implement what you’ll learn.

So if you’re prepared and willing to do what it takes…

Here Is What’s Included With The Program

The NPBO™ Practice Startup System 2.0 is 100% digital, delivered over a total of eight modules.

Once you place your order and complete the checkout process, you'll have immediate access to everything. You'll get instant access to all the lessons, worksheets, mind-maps, PDFs, and more.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of what’s included with each module.

The introductory module equips you with the right mindset. It will set you up for success from the get-go.

I want you to be clear on where you want to go with your practice; why and what you want to create. Hence you begin your journey by looking down the road, toward your future.

Because I want to set you up for success, we tackle the sensitive topic of Healthcare & Business; two words often thought to be mutually exclusive. But as you will see, that’s not the case at all.

We’ll spend time discussing the ethics of money, business & healthcare, something most clinicians still struggle with.

This module introduces the “PPMF Analysis" a unique and fundamental approach to getting started in business.

The PPMF Analysis is a framework I developed, encompassing the areas of personal, professional, financial and market.

• Get ready to ask some  important questions of yourself.
• Focus on finding the answers that are right for you. 
• Reflect on your personal reasons for wanting to start a practice.

The insights gained from going through the PPFM Analysis provide you with clarity, certainty, and focus before starting your practice.

Completing this process gives you the foundational piece you need before moving forward with anything else. It also helps you get started with creating your business plan.

You’ll start your business by selecting the best legal structure for your situation.

Choosing the right legal structure not only establishes your business but also provides protection for you and your business.

I'll show you how to find any regulations that might get in your way, and where to turn to obtain the appropriate licenses and permits.

Learn how you can protect yourself and your new business from potential legal troubles.

Next is building your team of professionals.  Business is rarely done by oneself, and it helps to have experts in other fields you can turn to for advice.

If you live in a state requiring collaboration, then this section is a MUST for you.

You’ll discover how to find the right person for you. You’ll learn how to start working with them and what types of agreements you need. 

An all-important topic, since you don’t want to work for... free!

We’ll look at various revenue models you can utilize in your practice and how you'll get paid.

Our discussion includes information on both, insurance and direct pay practices. We’ll talk about the all-important billing process.

The most recent update to the course includes an additional module on payment reform, specifically MACRA. The module discusses quality indicators, where to find them and how to report them.

• We’ll discuss how to set up your billing and which billing options you may want to consider.
• Should you go with in-house billing or would it be better to outsource? What specifically should you be looking for?
• We’ll talk about how to handle front desk collections.
• We’ll discuss your back office, so you’ll have a collections process in place when someone does not pay.
• We’ll cover how to set your fees so that they’ll be fair and legal, yet still benefit you.
• You'll discover and learn how to bill Medicare, Medicaid, commercial payers, and self-pay without violating existing laws.
  Closely connected to fees and billing process are documentation and coding.

You know as well as I do your documentation must justify the level of service billed. If not, you’re asking for trouble, potentially setting yourself up for health care fraud.

Two additional areas closely related are insurance and credentialing. While credentialing may sound scary now, you’ll see that it’s not that bad after all.

No matter what type of practice you’re going to set up, you'll need equipment, tools, and technology in your office.

We’ll talk about the different types of practices and what their space and equipment needs might be. We'll cover the functional areas of a practice, including:

• Reception Area
• Business Office
• Staff Workspace
• Clinical Workspace

Since technology is an integral part of practicing we’ll spend some time on choosing the right Electronic Medical Record (EMR) for your office.

This module also introduces the benefits of purchasing used vs. new.

Discover how  you can find  quality used equipment for your brand new office.

No, we’re not going to talk about clinical matters here. No need to, you ARE already the expert clinician. This about how to manage the backend of your office.

We’ll look at how your patients move through your clinic and what systems you should have in place.

• How to best schedule appointments
• How to handle new patient appointments and visits
• How to handle patient check-ins 

We'll talk about how to manage and monitor everyday clinical activities:

• What protocols to have  in place for your staff.
• What kind of documentation to put in place.
• The importance of implementing systems in your office.
• And much more...

This is the business side of managing your practice, something you most likely didn’t learn in school.

Since you are in the business of healthcare, you need to know how to manage the financial side of your practice. You’ll need to understand how to control your cash flow and how to utilize financial records and statements.

We’ll discuss:

• Human resources
• Risk management
• Safety of people and data
• Compliance
• And much more...

Once you realize most of these areas are driven by federal programs and regulations, you’ll agree that knowing about them and following them is in your best interest.

Patients are the lifeblood of your practice; without them there is no practice or business. 

That's why it's important you know how to attract a steady stream of patients into your business.

You'll learn that marketing is not a one-time event but an ongoing process. It includes everything you do, on a daily basis, to bring patients into your practice.

Next, we’ll discuss the “who, what, when, where, why, and how” of putting your marketing plan into place.

Our discussion includes both offline and online marketing strategies you can use to reach your audience.

By the end of this module, you will know how to identify your target market and what marketing channels are best to reach them.
