indepenent nurse assessor

Updated May 07, 2009 at 03:47 PM by nycrncares

Hi everyone

I have recently been working an extra job for an agency that has me assessing individuals in private residences or long term care facilities, who have long term care insurance. The fee that they pay me is about 1/4 of what they actually bill. Since it is plenty of paperwork after the visit, plus gas etc..I thought why not do this as my own business. I do know other RNs who would love to make the extra cash. Plus the thought of being in charge of my own business sounds like a great challenge.

I do love meeting the families and clients. I am very compassionate since I have been down that road before with some family members.
Any one have any ideas or suggestions. Please let me know.

Thanks
