July 28, 2010 Webinar: The Emerging Role of Nurse Practitioners in Expanding Access, Enhancing Revenue
Linda Lindeke will detail the financial and clinical advantages of adding a nurse practitioner to the primary care team during the July 28, 2010 webinar, "The Emerging Role of Nurse Practitioners in Expanding Access, Enhancing Revenue."
July 26, 2010
MANASQUAN, NJ, USA — Certain populations, particularly the elderly, may question the presence of a nurse practitioner (NP) in the primary care office, according to Linda Lindeke, an associate professor for the School of Nursing and Department of Pediatrics and director of Graduate Studies for the School of Nursing at the University of Minnesota. However, the NP is adept at helping populations to transition from one care setting to another and receive the best care possible. Lindeke will discuss how NPs are being tapped in the physician practice, hospital and clinic settings to increase access to care and coordinate care for patients with chronic conditions during "The Emerging Role of Nurse Practitioners in Expanding Access, Enhancing Revenue," a 45-minute webinar on July 28, 2010 at 1:30 Eastern sponsored by the Healthcare Intelligence Network.
Learn more about the expanding role of NP existence in primary care and physician practices.

QUOTE ATTRIBUTABLE TO MELANIE MATTHEWS, HIN EXECUTIVE VP AND COO:
Click here for Melanie Matthews's profile.
"With 32 million people becoming eligible for health coverage in the coming years in an already strained primary care system with a shortage of PCPs, healthcare providers will require the expertise of NPs to effectively deliver primary care services. During this program, organizations will learn how to put NP training and experience to work for them and gain an understanding in how an NP can benefit the care of the medically underserved."
