Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner; PMHNP), Telehealth

Position: Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), Telehealth, Illinois
Contract role, by telehealth, $67–$105 per hour. Illinois, plus South Carolina, Connecticut, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, New York, Rhode Island and Georgia.
New Reflections Counseling, P.A. is a multi-state outpatient therapy practice founded in 2012. We're looking for a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner to provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management by video for clients located in Illinois. The same role also covers South Carolina, Connecticut, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, New York, Rhode Island and Georgia, so you can cover Illinois alone or several states. Today we prescribe in Florida, New Jersey, Colorado and North Carolina, and this role extends medication management into these eight states. This role does not prescribe controlled substances. You'd manage non-controlled psychiatric medications only. All sessions are by telehealth.
What the work involves

• Psychiatric evaluations and management of non-controlled medications by telehealth
• Coordinating care with the NRC therapist who's seeing the same client, with the client's consent
• Keeping your own notes and prescribing within each state's rules

What you need for Illinois

• An Illinois RN license and APRN license with prescriptive authority, or a willingness to get them
• An Illinois controlled-substance license and an active DEA registration (or a willingness to get them before you start), even though this role doesn't prescribe controlled substances
• Your own written collaborative agreement with an Illinois-licensed physician in active practice, in place before you start, unless you hold Full Practice Authority. NRC does not provide one.

What you need in every state you cover

• National board certification as a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (for example, ANCC PMHNP-BC)
• At least two years of practice as a PMHNP, ready to practice without a preceptor from your first visit
• The license, registrations and any collaborating or supervising physician that state requires. Georgia, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Tennessee always require a physician; New York until 3,600 hours of NP practice; Connecticut for your first 3 years and 2,000 hours; Rhode Island nurse practitioners practice independently. NRC does not provide a physician.
• Your own malpractice coverage for telehealth in every state you cover ($1 million/$3 million)
• The ability to be credentialed with insurance plans as a prescriber (individual NPI, CAQH profile or a willingness to set one up, no federal program exclusions). The practice handles the credentialing paperwork.

What the practice handles: scheduling, billing and insurance credentialing.
Terms: contract role, by telehealth, $67–$105 per hour. This role doesn't include employee benefits.
