RNFA billing

Published

Hi!

I was wondering what you experienced RNFAs out there use for billing.

Good companies to recommend? (If it matters, I'm in Oregon)

What's the normal rate they take off the top (10%)?

Also, I am an APRN (NP) if that matters as well.

I am looking into independent contracting and would appreciate any advice related to that as well, especially from APRNs, but any advice is helpful.

Thanks!

5-10% seems to be the going rate for PAs that have first assist companies (although if you get big enough its more profitable to take it in house. You also might consider having the surgeon you assist bill it for you for a nominal rate (5% seems the going rate here). This has the advantage of making sure that all of the billing information (diagnosis, procedures etc) is the same.

Might post this in the NP section as there are several NPs there that first assist.
