For both new and existing nurse practitioners (NPs), “Nurse Practitioner’s Business Practice and Legal Guide, Eighth Edition” is an essential resource.
This guide stands out from other books because it was written by a NP with a lot of experience and a practicing attorney with nearly 30 years of experience focusing on NP-related legal issues.
It provides a straightforward and simple-to-read explanation and analysis of legal issues that are relevant to NPs.
Medical bioethics terminology, malpractice cases and their lessons, emerging health policy issues, guidelines for prescribing opioids and controlled drugs, clinical performance measures, and electronic health records are all covered in the Eighth Edition.
Other topics covered include NP competencies, the relationship between the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree and NPs, differences between primary care and acute care NPs, and the Business Practice and Legal Guide.
It addresses practical concerns like the sixth edition of the nurse practitioner certification exam prep How many states allow nurses to fill prescriptions? If an insurance company refuses to pay for a patient’s visit, what can a nurse do? What should an employment contract include? When starting a private practice, what legal considerations must be made? How does a nurse practitioner know when to see a doctor? These and other inquiries can be answered in the “Nurse Practitioner’s Business Practice and Legal Guide, Eighth Edition,” making it an essential resource for practicing NPs, students, employers of NPs, and attorneys representing NPs or the medical facilities where NPs are employed.
