PICC Insertion Business


Hi,

Ive been offered several times over the past year to come and place piccs at smaller specialty hospitals. I think its time i pursue this. Anyone out there have their own picc business?

I have a few questions if anyone out there might be of assistance.

1. Liability Insurance: Does the CNA insurance offered in the nursing journals cover you for this type of business? What type of liability insurance do you have?

2. Contracts: Anyone with a sample contract they are willing to share?

Thanks for your help. You can PM me and we can share info if you would like to go that route.

Default Re: PICC Insertion Business
Bob: I have the NSO insurance and I am part of a PICC team in a small hospital. We make no more money for placing PICCs and I have been wanting to go into business for a long time. I will review my policy and see, or talk with someone there. Also, a contract could be any variation of the usual informed consent for procedures, I would think. How do I PM you?
