But NPs make a lower salary than doctors they say. It's fair because they make less they say. Private practice they can make whatever they want. Where are the apologists now? Telepsych only pays $300 a month to supervise nurse practitioners. Doctors will sell out cheap as fuck and the nurse practitioners can do whatever they want after paying that cheap fee. Half the states they don't even have to pay a small fee. They just do whatever they want. There is no business reason they can't make the same as doctors if they both open cash practices. Even if they both open insurance practices a nurse practitioners gets 85%. 15% less for 1/10 the training. Nice return.
