I have a very broad area of practice with many special interests. I currently split my time between the Utah State Hospital managing patients with severe and persistent mental illness, Emergency and consult/liaison psychiatry in many different states performing risk assessments and crisis intervention and overseeing a growing private practice with a focus on interventional psychiatry using transcranial magnetic stimulation and ketamine.

I am certified with MagVenture, NeuroStar and Brainsway TMS systems and I am familiar with the pros and cons of each system to help you make informed decisions about what machine to use for a given population. My clinic also heavily utilizes Spravato, IV and IM ketamine and I can help you implement these treatments into your clinic by working with you to establish protocols and systems to deploy these treatments efficiently and effectively. I am also a certified speaker for Spravato and I would love to come visit you at your clinic and share a sponsored talk with the providers in your area. I also can connect you with billing services that specialize in obtaining prior authorizations and submitting claims to carriers for these procedures. If you are hesitant to add these services to your clinic, PLEASE TALK TO ME! By the time a patient presents to psychiatric specialty care, they have often tried the traditional treatment options. Your patients need access to these lifesaving interventions. My broad area of experience will help you feel confident that you can treat whatever condition walks through your door or pops up onto your screen. As a psychiatric specialty provider, you need to take care of the patients that primary care can't take on and that means you need to be a confident expert. I love to teach.

Florida at a Glance
Element | Details |
|---|---|
Practice Authority Type | Collaborative APRN Protocol (or Autonomous for eligible primary care NPs) |
Collaboration Requirement | Required for most NPs; Waivable for primary care NPs with 3,000+ hours |
Supervising Physician Requirement | Yes, unless the autonomous practice is approved |
Chart Review Requirement | Per individual APRN Protocol; No longer submitted to Board |
Prescriptive Authority | Full authority per protocol; Includes controlled substances for master’s/doctoral-prepared NPs |
Governing Board | Florida Board of Nursing and Florida Board of Medicine |
To be eligible for autonomous practice, a nurse practitioner must hold an active, unencumbered license issued by the Florida Board of Nursing.
Candidates for APRN roles must graduate from an accredited school of nursing to meet educational and licensing requirements.
The autonomous practice pathway for APRNs in Florida was established by House Bill 607.
Introduction to Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) Role
Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) are essential providers in Florida’s healthcare landscape, delivering comprehensive patient care across a range of clinical settings. APRNs are highly trained professionals who have completed advanced education and clinical training in specialized areas such as family medicine, general pediatrics, and general internal medicine. Their expertise allows them to assess, diagnose, and manage patient care, often serving as primary care providers for individuals and families.
In Florida, APRNs have the opportunity to practice autonomously, meaning they can make independent clinical decisions and provide care without direct physician oversight, provided they meet specific requirements. To qualify as an APRN, candidates must graduate from an accredited nursing program, obtain national certification in their chosen specialty, and secure professional liability coverage to protect themselves and their patients. The Florida Board of Nursing is responsible for regulating APRN practice, ensuring that all advanced practice registered nurses adhere to established rules, maintain current certification, and uphold the highest standards of patient care. This oversight helps guarantee that APRNs in Florida are well-prepared to meet the diverse healthcare needs of their communities.
How Nurse Practitioner Practice Works in Florida
Florida’s regulatory approach emphasizes professional autonomy within a collaborative framework, offering more flexibility than many neighboring states. The state recognizes APRNs as advanced practice registered nurses with authority to practice in multiple specialty areas, including family medicine, acute care, psychiatric-mental health nursing, and others.
The cornerstone of Florida NP practice is the APRN Protocol—a document created jointly by you and your supervising allopathic or osteopathic physician that defines your scope of practice, prescriptive authority, and collaborative relationship. An osteopathic physician may serve as a supervising or collaborating physician. Unlike some states that submit protocols to regulatory boards for approval, Florida maintains these protocols locally at your place of employment. Since June 23, 2017, the Florida Board of Nursing no longer requires protocols to be filed with the state, reducing administrative burden while maintaining accountability.
Credentialing and Licensing
Credentialing and licensing are critical steps for advanced practice registered nurses seeking to practice advanced nursing in Florida. The Florida Board of Nursing requires all APRNs to hold a current, unencumbered license, demonstrating that they meet the state’s rigorous standards for education, training, and professional conduct. Maintaining licensure involves completing ongoing continuing education requirements, which ensure that APRNs stay current with the latest developments in nursing care and patient safety.
In addition to educational and certification requirements, APRNs must demonstrate financial responsibility by maintaining professional liability coverage. This coverage can be obtained through an authorized insurer, surplus lines insurer, or risk retention group, and must meet the state’s minimum annual aggregate requirement—typically $300,000 in total coverage, with at least $100,000 available per claim. These financial responsibility requirements are designed to protect both the practitioner and their patients in the event of a claim or adverse incident.
Prescriptive Authority Agreement: What Matters
Your APRN Protocol is more than a regulatory requirement; it’s your professional shield and operational roadmap. Here’s what makes an effective prescriptive authority section:
Specific Drug Categories: List the categories of medications you can prescribe independently (e.g., antibiotics for common infections, antihypertensives, asthma medications) rather than giving blanket authorization
Controlled Substance Eligibility: If you graduated from a master’s or doctoral degree program with training in specialized practitioner skills, your protocol can authorize controlled substance prescribing. Eligibility requires pharmacology completed at the graduate level. For autonomous practice registration, you must also have completed coursework in differential diagnosis and a minimum number of graduate level semester hours. Document this authorization explicitly
Schedule II Limitations: Some protocols specify limitations on Schedule II controlled substances, restricting you to certain indications or requiring case-by-case physician consultation
Consultation Triggers: Define clinical scenarios requiring physician consultation before prescribing (complex medication interactions, high-risk patient populations, off-label use)
Initial versus Maintenance Therapy: Clarify whether you can initiate all therapies or only continue maintenance regimens the physician started
Formulary Modifications: Include procedures for updating approved drug lists as new medications become available or clinical evidence evolves
Emergency Prescribing: Document your authority to prescribe emergency medications without prior physician authorization
Documentation Standards: Specify how you’ll document prescriptive decisions, including your clinical reasoning and any physician consultation that occurred
Signatures and Dates: Both you and your supervising physician must sign and date the protocol. Keep copies for your records; no state submission is required
Collaborating Physician Rules and Limitations
Florida’s physician collaboration model offers flexibility while maintaining clear professional boundaries that protect patients and ensure accountability.
Physician Licensing: Your supervising physician must hold an active, unencumbered license to practice medicine in Florida. Neither the APRN nor the collaborating physician should have been subject to disciplinary action or similar disciplinary action in any jurisdiction within the past five years. The Board of Medicine requires that physicians notify the board when entering into a supervisory relationship with an APRN. This notification is typically the physician’s responsibility, but confirming it’s been completed protects you.
Specialty Alignment: While not legally required, your supervising physician’s clinical expertise should align with your patient population and practice focus. An APRN in a family practice clinic works best with a family medicine physician. An APRN in orthopedic urgent care requires a physician knowledgeable in orthopedics. This alignment ensures consultation is valuable and clinically relevant.
Physical Presence: Florida does not require your supervising physician to be physically present at your practice location. They can provide supervision remotely via telephone, video conferencing, or secure messaging. This flexibility enables NPs to practice in underserved areas where local physicians may be scarce.
Physician-to-NP Ratios: Florida does not establish numerical limits on how many APRNs a single physician can supervise. However, practical considerations matter—a physician with 10 APRNs may struggle to provide timely consultation to all of them. Your collaboration agreement should realistically address the physician’s capacity to supervise your practice.
Compliance Expectations You Should Not Ignore
Florida’s regulatory bodies conduct periodic reviews to ensure NPs practice safely and within their authorized scope. Understanding compliance expectations helps you maintain your license and avoid practice disruptions.
Controlled Substance Prescribing Audits: Florida closely monitors controlled substance prescribing by all providers, including NPs. Audits may focus on opioid prescribing patterns, adherence to PDMP requirements, and appropriateness of Schedule II authorizations. Maintain detailed documentation showing your prescribing rationale and compliance with state guidelines.
License Maintenance: Your nursing license and prescriptive authority certificate must remain current. Plan for license renewal 60 days before expiration to avoid practice interruptions. Similarly, ensure your DEA registration is renewed on schedule.
Complaint Response: If a patient, physician, or other party files a complaint with the Florida Board of Nursing, respond promptly and thoroughly. Provide complete documentation of the incident in question, including your clinical notes, communication with your supervising physician, and your protocols. Timely, detailed responses often resolve complaints faster than delayed or incomplete submissions.
Telehealth Compliance: If you practice via telehealth, maintain compliance with Florida’s telehealth rules, including establishing appropriate provider-patient relationships, maintaining patient privacy, and documenting telehealth encounters similarly to in-person visits.
What Does a Collaborating Physician Cost in Florida
Florida's collaborative physician costs vary significantly based on practice location, physician experience, and whether you're seeking part-time or ongoing collaboration.
Urban versus Rural Markets: Miami, Tampa, and Orlando physicians typically charge $1,200–$3,500 monthly for APRN collaboration, while rural Florida physicians may charge $600–$1,500
Specialty-Specific Variation: Family medicine and internal medicine collaborators often cost less than specialist physicians; psychiatrists and surgeon collaborators command premium rates
Hourly Consultation Models: Some physicians charge $80–$200 per hour for consultation time, which may be less expensive if you need intermittent guidance rather than ongoing oversight
Relationship Longevity Discounts: Experienced collaborators who've worked with multiple NPs may charge less than physicians new to the collaborative model
Employment-Based Models: If employed by a health system, your employer may have pre-existing relationships with physicians, reducing collaboration costs
Performance-Based Fees: Some physicians accept percentage-of-revenue arrangements, aligning their income with practice success
Retainer Models: Annual retainer agreements often cost $8,000–$20,000 yearly, providing unlimited consultation and collaboration

Finding the Right Collaborating Physician in Florida
Florida's healthcare market is competitive, with many physicians aware of NP collaboration opportunities. However, not all physicians are suitable collaborators, and finding the right fit requires intentional strategy.
Challenge One: Volume of Requests: Florida physicians receive numerous collaboration requests from NPs. Without a structured introduction, your request may be lost in the shuffle or dismissed as a generic inquiry.
Challenge Two: Mismatched Expectations: Some physicians envision NP collaboration as a supervisory relationship with significant physician control; others are uncomfortable with NP autonomy. Misaligned expectations create friction and undermine collaboration.
Challenge Three: Limited Availability: Physicians in high-demand specialties may already have collaboration relationships and lack capacity for additional NPs.
Challenge Four: Geographic Mismatch: Finding a local physician with matching specialty when you practice in a rural area can be nearly impossible through traditional networking.
Modern Solution: Platforms like NPCollaborator.com connect you with pre-screened Florida physicians actively seeking collaboration relationships. These platforms handle credential verification, facilitate negotiations, and provide contract templates that protect both parties. The time and stress savings often justify platform fees multiple times over.
Benefits extend beyond speed. These platforms match you based on specialty, geography, and practice model compatibility. They provide transparent pricing, contract templates specifically designed for Florida's regulatory requirements, and ongoing support if relationship issues arise. This structured approach reduces the likelihood of mismatched expectations and collaboration failure.
Physician Fit Checklist
Before committing to a collaborative relationship, evaluate these critical factors:
Clinical Background: Does their experience align with your patient population and clinical focus?
Telemedicine Comfort: Are they comfortable practicing collaboratively via remote communication, or do they expect frequent in-person meetings?
Responsiveness: How quickly do they typically respond to consultation requests? What's their communication style?
Autonomy Tolerance: Do they respect NP judgment and clinical autonomy, or do they micromanage decision-making?
APRN Protocol Experience: Have they collaborated with other APRNs? Do they understand Florida's APRN Protocol system?
Controlled Substance Oversight: If controlled substance prescribing is important to your practice, confirm they're comfortable with this authorization
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I practice as an APRN in Florida without a collaborating physician?
A: Yes, if you qualify for autonomous practice authority. This requires 3,000 hours of clinical practice within the past five years, demonstration of competence, and board approval. APRNs must also demonstrate department financial responsibility to cover potential claims, including the ability to pay claims and costs ancillary thereto arising from their practice. To meet this, APRNs must maintain a minimum aggregate availability of liability coverage, which can be satisfied through an irrevocable letter of credit or other following methods approved by the department. Autonomous practice is limited to primary care settings and requires a separate approval process.
Q: What’s included in a standard APRN Protocol?
A: The protocol should describe your role, duties, conditions you can treat, treatments you can initiate, medications you can prescribe, consultation triggers, and the supervising physician’s duties. The Florida Board of Nursing provides a template to guide you.
Q: Do I need to file my APRN Protocol with the Board of Nursing?
A: No. Since June 23, 2017, protocols are maintained locally at your practice location. The Board doesn’t require submission or approval, though your protocol must be available for inspection during audits.
Q: Can my supervising physician be located in another state?
A: No. Your supervising physician must be licensed in Florida to provide collaborative oversight to a Florida APRN.
Q: How often should I communicate with my collaborating physician?
A: Your protocol should specify communication expectations. Common arrangements include monthly meetings, weekly consultations on complex cases, or ad-hoc communication as needed. Define what works for your practice.
Q: Can I modify my APRN Protocol after it’s established?
A: Yes. You and your supervising physician can modify the protocol to expand your scope, address new patient populations, or adjust collaboration arrangements. Modifications don’t require board approval.
Q: What if my collaborating physician becomes unavailable?
A: Your authority to practice continues until the collaborative relationship formally ends. You have a reasonable transition period (typically 30–60 days) to establish a new collaborative relationship. During this period, you can continue managing established patients but cannot accept new patients.
Q: Can I have multiple supervising physicians in Florida?
A: Yes, some APRNs maintain multiple collaborative relationships to cover different specialties or provide redundancy. Ensure protocols don’t conflict and that all parties understand the arrangement.
Q: What’s the difference between autonomous practice and independent practice?
A: In Florida, “autonomous practice” means practicing without a collaborating physician requirement if you meet specific criteria. “Independent practice” sometimes refers to the same concept. Check with the Florida Board of Nursing for current terminology and specific requirements.
Q: How do I apply for autonomous practice authority?
A: Contact the Florida Board of Nursing with documentation of 3,000 hours of practice within five years, evidence of clinical competence, and any other required documentation. APRNs must also show proof of financial responsibility as part of the application. The Board provides specific application requirements and guidance.
Q: What is the scope of practice for APRNs with autonomous authority in Florida?
A: APRNs with autonomous authority can provide patient care and a range of services, including evaluating patients, diagnosing, ordering tests, and prescribing, without mandatory physician supervision, provided they meet criteria such as no recent disciplinary actions and proof of financial responsibility. They may perform these services in a health care facility as part of their autonomous practice.
Final Thoughts
Florida stands apart in recognizing nurse practitioner expertise while maintaining quality standards through collaborative frameworks and autonomous practice options. The state's decision to let NPs and physicians manage APRN Protocols locally, without state submission, demonstrates confidence in professional self-regulation and creates operational flexibility.
The APRN Protocol isn't a burden; it's a professional agreement that clarifies expectations, protects your patients, and shields your practice from ambiguity. A well-constructed protocol that you and your collaborating physician understand and follow creates the foundation for sustainable practice.
As you establish or expand your APRN practice in Florida, consider the comprehensive resources available through specialized platforms like NPCollaborator.com. These tools accelerate physician matching, provide regulatory guidance, and offer ongoing support that simplifies the complexities of collaborative practice management.
