You have successfully passed your national certification boards and are ready to seek employment. Just as the process from graduation to employment was a sequence of events, so is the process of beginning employment. This phase requires information on employment contracting, reimbursement, and coding, as well as insurance and hospital credentialing. The transition into this next phase of your career will depend on you and your future employer’s experience with hiring a nurse practitioner. Even if the employer has experience, you will want to oversee that all of the pieces necessary for your success are put into place.
