Using Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants in an Academic Otorhinolaryngology Practice
Objectives:1) Recognize the value of the Nurse Practitioner/Physician Assistant (NP/PA) in an otorhinolaryngology practice. 2) Describe application of care models to achieve improved outcomes for patients and increased job satisfaction for providers. Methods: Single institutional evaluation of NP/PA provider integration into an academic otorhinolaryngology practice. Results: Healthcare in the United States is at a crossroads. The number of insured patients seeking care will rise dramatically over the next 2 years. The number of medical doctors is declining, and based on Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) recommendations, resident work hours are decreasing. In otorhinolaryngology accommodating the increasing needs of the population will require improved use of resources, including personnel to provide high quality, compassionate healthcare. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants are well educated and highly motivated to work alongside a collaborating physician(s) to provide this care. At Mayo Clinic, the otorhinolaryngology department employs 7 NP/PA providers. These NP/PA providers work with a variety of staff surgeons, resident surgeons, nurses, and ancillary health providers to maintain high quality, highly accessible healthcare. The care model of each individual NP/PA and collaborating physician vary in otorhinolaryngology at Mayo Clinic. However, the care models work based on the needs of the practice, the patient, and the providers. Conclusions: The NP/PA providers perform a variety of services for the patient and the collaborating physician. The care models used allow each provider (MD, NP/PA) to use their time to the best of their ability, increasing job satisfaction and thereby providing high quality, cost effective care..
