Thanks, I have been going over this for awhile. I was thinking of retiring from education and working with a Dr in pvt practice when this opened up. So far I am seeing pts in the Nursing home, as I said, and that reimbursement for me is around $35. The billing is now under my name but his office handles the paperwork. I pay for my malpractice, which will take a while to recoup- especially doing this part time. I appreciate the validation of my questioning if this is worth it.

I am working for him seeing pts in Nursing Homes, when a psy consult is requested. I do the initial assessment and all follow ups. The paperwork is done electronically- I email my reports to his office and they distribute to the Nursing Home. We talk on the phone for consulting or by email. I am not in the office. I write the orders, he does the billing. if it were 60/40 who is the 40%?

Thanks for the advice. He also works with another CNS who does not have prescriptive authority. I call him for advice on meds to prescribe, etc, but he does not see the pts. So far my arraignment is for part time (I also teach at the University). He pays for the billing and secretarial support.

I am a CNS with prescriptive authority and in my state I still need a collaborating Dr. He says the standard is a 50/50 split of the reimbursement? What kind of fee split are some of you working with? Thanks Deanaha
