Help Wanted: Retail Health Clinics and Nurse Practitioners

Retail health clinics are popping up all over the United States in grocery and drug stores. More than 10,000 NPs and PAs are employed by these clinics— and they are the largest employer for NPs nationwide. So why do nurse practitioners and physician assistants want to work at these clinics? Dr. Roger Green, division western region vice president of the Little Clinics in the Kroger grocery store system, joins host Mimi Secor to discuss why so many NPs and PAs want to work in retail health, who these companies are recruiting and the global expansion of these clinics.
