I can tell you eventually you are going to realize that nursing is not the profession it used to be. I have been a nurse for 36 years and get the same responses, no call back interviewers telling me that they are impressed yet never call back.
It is all a money making business, very impersonal.
I would suggest before it is too late to change careers. As you get more experienced you will see a dead end. Hours now are 12 hours, not flexible.

I went to nursing school very late in life (passed NCLEX at the age of 44). Then a POS driver retired me with less than 5 years of experience. If I could get in the way back machine, I would be just about anything except a nurse at this point. Everyone treats nurses like 💩 and the job destroys your body so fast that way too many nurses never even get the chance to think about retirement

What is something low cost I can do that will be a nice “couples thing” so we can de-stress, but also make her feel special?

Hi! I'm currently interviewing (3/6 interviews so far) for for an appeals manager role for DME. The job entails not only to bill for dme (cms 1500) but also to follow up on any denials or appeals, amongst other administrative duties. My questions are is it typical to have 1 person doing both the billing and denials within a new vertical for all ins.? How difficult is billing for dme as I only have experience in gyn onc and lactation billing? What's a fair salary? I have 8+ yoe in rcm, no certs.

So I say this with complete humility and an understanding that this is a fortunate-ish situation to be in. I’m in a position where I am tied to nothing, I have no children, spouse, or house.
