Marketing feels daunting to many nurse practitioners. Afterall, you have your hands full with seeing patients and running your practice. And yet, it’s essential in order to have the patients that make this all worthwhile.

In this episode of the NP Business Matters podcast, we discuss the first and most important things NPs want to do when marketing their practices.

All before spending a dime or hiring anyone.

Such as finding your ideal patient, identifying the benefits of you and your practice, avoiding, starting a Google business profile, and more.

If you were presented with the idea of having a scribe do all your documentation, would you do it? If you are like most healthcare providers, you would jump up and down for the opportunity. Documentation is the least favorite activity for nearly all providers.

Enter the healthcare AI (Artificial Intelligence) scribe.

• It’s a tool that can save you hours and allow you to focus on the patient in front of you.
• It’s a tireless worker who understands (or should understand) privacy.
• It’s non-intrusive.
• And it’s cost-effective.

What’s not to love?

But before you jump on this and bring one into your practice and work flower, there are some things you need to consider. Big things, like the legal implications, privacy, and ethical concerns.
