Design an educational teaching tool (PowerPoint) that will focus on the major healthcare payers to present to your peers.
• What are the differences and similarities between SCHIP, Indian Health Service, Veterans Health Administration?
• What types of environments (where) would you expect to find these services?
• What are the major-specific characteristics of each payer?
• How do each of these, along with private pay and any third-party payer, affect how a nurse practitioner provides care?
• Are there any differences/similarities between physicians and NP’s payment structures?
