Denial of provider status is something that seriously impedes a nurse practitioner’s ability to practice. If
that
occurs, some steps one can take include:
“Bashing” the organization to others and contacting an attorney.
Writing letters to the organization’s president and chief executive officer (CEO), activating others to
lobby
on your behalf, and reapplying after a 6-month period.
, Requesting that your clients lobby on your behalf by going to the newspapers.
Requesting that your physician colleagues intervene on your behalf by writing critical letters to the
organization in question.
There are many steps a nurse practitioner can take if denied provider status by a 3rd party reimburser. First,
one should ascertain the reasons for this stance and determine whether it is the same across the board
regarding nurse practitioners. If it is a consistent policy, attempt to find out why and begin marshaling
evidence to overturn this stance in a constructive way. This may include having both clients and physician
colleagues “lobby” on your behalf. Find out who the decision maker in the organization is and attempt to
communicate directly with that person. Ascertain if there is a law in the state mandating this policy. Be
prepared to testify at hearings and speak out at community meetings about this issue. Request language
changes that specify “ask your doctor” and lobby to have these changes adopted. Reapplication in 6 months is
reasonable.
