Uber NPs?

Published

At work my day can vary from busy to slow, so on my slow days I take it upon myself to get up to date w/ what's going on in the medical community. I go to Medscape, the CDC, NYTimes Health page, and the Washington Post. Yesterday I stumbled upon this piece: http://mri1exmbpw1p/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/05/05/an-uber-for-doctor-housecalls/?ref=health%26_r=0

I think it's a great idea, but all I kept reading was "doctors..."

Any NPs out there who know of any positions doing this? Might be another interesting venture for those looking for some extra work on the side...

Interested but appears the link is broken. Do you have another source?

Strange it opened for me, but go to the nytimes.com site > health > well. You should be able to find "An Uber for Doctor Housecalls."

Hopefully that works! :)

There is a dallas based pedi NP group starting this up..looks fascinating and like such a great opportunity.

Another similar app-based start-up under a different name as the NYT article actually has a posting for NP's to work in the LA/Hollywood area.
