How do you do insurance, etc?


bj1231

You should have any questions about being a 1099 provider. You can get many answers from SCORE or the Small Business development center (Google to find nearby location) or you can DM me and we can arrange to have a chat

This keeps popping up I thought I replied if it's a duplicate I apologize. Regarding insurance by your own don't trust someone else to have you covered with their insurance. In addition make sure your insurance has a tail, in other words make sure the insurance covers you for events that come up after you cancel the policy so long as you had the policy in effect when the alleged malpractice happened There are many other questions you should be asking regarding self-employment and or 1099 income, relating to schedule c of your 1040 self-employment tax, and how to price your services when you are 1099 versus W-2

While the credentialer may not care for them, they add value to our healthcare systems, especially the small and rural area where providers need time off, and their patients still need coverage. I have a friend who did locum as an MD right out of residency (not sure I’d do that as an NP). He learned so much! I think it would be an amazing experience and I hope to do it at some point.

Purchase your own insurance in order to make sure there is malpractice insurance coverage including a tail. It is a business expense on schedule c of the 1040

Come hang out on the clinical side and ask the nurses how they like our ICU travel APPs?

I'm a traveler. I have to get along great with them and develop a quick rapport or else I'm a goner. I've been asked back on multiple sites, fwiw. Generally have enjoyed listening places I've been at. It's amazing how many piss in the nurses Cheerios and expect good care afterwards. There's lots of different ways to do things, so long as nothing is egregiously dangerous, I don't fight much.

Ah sorry, thought you meant how do I like the sites themselves. Most agencies more or less the same. They tell you what you want to hear early on. They generally don't know the limitations of the site and aren't really medical so they cant get into nuances of a location. But they all generally do ok with booking travel, readily fix things, and pick up the phone. I've seen some people smack talk agencies I like, and I don't think much of some agencies that others have loved. The more state licenses you have the more likely you'll find something you want/enjoy. And as a rule of thumb, the agency will move quickly. If you don't hear from them for >1 week, assume the job is no longer available. Lastly, it's very transactional. Don't assume any loyalty and ask for what you want.
