i made the jump 2 years ago & would still become a manager. automate as much as you can (reviewing reporting vs claim reviews / email templates for commonly sent info) block your calendar & be sure to add admin time in the morning. this may be your one quiet hour of the day, use it wisely. instill independent working & coach heavily up front so they can eventually do the job w minimal direction
