[AU-Mbr] Multi-State Reimbursement Survey

[Robert Smithing]

Dear AUWS Member:

This is being resent to ARNPs United Members who may also be members of AANP. If this is a duplicate our apologies.

Please take a few minutes to complete the online Multi-State Reimbursement Survey, at the link provided below.  AANP is conducting this survey in collaboration with the ARNPs United of Washington State to explore issues related to reimbursement of NPs practicing in Washington State. NPs in many states face inequitable reimbursement for the provision of health care services. By completing the survey you will be contributing to our ability to identify payer trends in your area. The information collected through this survey will be used to identify and implement strategies to address identified inequities in reimbursement. Please provide information that is specific to your practice setting. If you do not know the information requested, please recruit the assistance of your office billing specialist for completion.

All responses are anonymous and only aggregate statistics will be reported.  Participation is voluntary.

Thank you in advance for your time and cooperation. We can only be successful with your assistance. The survey is located at the following URL:  http://goo.gl/zE3oz

If technical difficulties are encountered with the survey, contact Kevin Traylor at ktraylor at aanp.org  or 512-442-4262.  Should you have any questions or comments about the survey’s purpose, contact Tay Kopanos, DNP, at dcoffice at aanp.org.
