clinic without a doctor onsite? If I couldn't become a CRNA I think that this would be my secondary goal. When I was a Corpman in the Navy I dreamed of going to medical school and gaining a Family Practice specialty. With such a degree, I felt that I could "bring back" MD housecalls to America even if I couldn't accept insurence. Well, it doesn't look like becoming an MD is realistic (right now getting my BSN is plenty of a challenge) so I was considering the "legal" feasibility of pursuing this concept with the NP license. I feel certain that I couldn't make "house calls", but how about a walk-in, cash only clinic (that would have a "sliding scale" fee arrangement based on income, and take payments)? Would physician supervision requirements be such that I would have to have an MD onsite? If not what sort of supervision would be required (and what sort of "split" would be typical). I would also like to be able to integrate alternative and complementary medicine that had significant science supporting its efficacy. Is this something that NP's are typically able to do within their "scope" of practice? I've had MD's tell me that THEY would like to utilize more A&C approaches, but fear professional ridicule (thus I suspect that it would be even HARDER for NP's to integrate such approaches).
