Start Your Own Practice | Nurse Practitioner | Connecticut | Fall 2026

Kinstead • Boston, MA

10d • $100 - $150

About The Position

Kinstead helps nurse practitioners across Connecticut open and operate their own insurance-based practices. The nurse practitioner owns the practice, including its name, brand, website, reviews, and patient relationships, and chooses the care model, schedule, visit lengths, and whether to provide care by telehealth, in person, or a mix of both. Potential areas include women’s health, mental health, primary care, or another specialty.

Kinstead supports the administrative and operational work behind the practice, including credentialing, payer contracts, billing and collections, branding and website development, and provision of an EHR, scheduling, practice tools, and training. Ongoing support is also provided. The nurse practitioner earns a set rate per visit, paid monthly; Kinstead assumes the risk if insurers pay slowly or do not pay. The arrangement has no minimums or exit fee, and either party can end it with 60 days’ notice, with the practitioner’s patients and brand remaining theirs.

Practitioners can continue their current work during credentialing. Kinstead says most NPs see their first patients within about 60 days of opening. The role is intended for a practitioner ready to build an independent practice with operational support.
