Any advice appreciated

Published

Back in January I was accused of diversion from my job as a Med/Surge RN. I admitted to the diversion and self reported to FL IPN. I have completed the evaluation and they are requesting PHP for 6-8 weeks in addition to a monitoring contract. The advice I need comes from charges that came along with the diversion. I was arrested for 2 felony charges. The court it withholding adjucation (not guilty or innocent). I got a letter from AHCA (Medicare) saying that I have disqualifying charges and have to wait for 3 years before I can apply for reinstatement. My license is clear and active but I am wondering if I can even work as a nurse in Florida or not?!?  Is it even worth doing IPN until I can work?

So did you get the letter from OIG saying that you can be reinstated in 3years? If that is the case, you will not be able to work in healthcare anywhere.

If you can find a job that does not take medicare then you could work there. Like cash only places. But it will hard to find those places.

So far I am not on the OIG list... just AHCA
