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

Kinstead • Boston, MA

10d • $100 - $1,500

About The Position

Kinstead helps nurse practitioners across Maryland open their own insurance-based practices. The nurse practitioner owns and operates a practice under their own name and brand, builds relationships with their own patients, and decides their schedule, visit length, care model, and whether to offer telehealth, in-person care, or both. Potential specialties include women’s health, mental health, and primary care.

Kinstead supports the practice by handling payer credentialing and contracts, billing and collections, branding and online presence, and providing an EHR, scheduling and practice tools, training, and ongoing assistance. The NP earns a set rate for each visit, paid monthly; Kinstead assumes the risk of delayed or unpaid insurance claims. The arrangement has no minimum patient-volume requirements or exit fee. Either party may end it with 60 days’ notice, and the NP retains their patients and brand. Most NPs see their first patients within about 60 days of opening.
