The moment

Independence attaches at licensure

New Hampshire grants APRNs practice authority in their own right — advanced assessment, diagnosis, and what RSA 326-B:11 calls plenary authority to prescribe. The physician-oversight ties came out in the chapter’s late-2000s overhaul, and the duty that remains is clinical, not structural: consult, collaborate, or refer when the patient’s condition calls for it.

The requirement

none — independence at licensure

The moment it attaches

automatic — attaches at initial APRN licensure

The timeline

APRN chapter recodified 2005; remaining physician-oversight ties removed by 2008-2009 amendments

The statute

N.H. RSA 326-B:11

Worth knowing

New Hampshire's statute reaches for the word 'plenary' — RSA 326-B:11 gives APRNs 'plenary authority to possess, compound, prescribe, administer, and dispense' drugs, language dating from the chapter's late-2000s overhaul.

N.H. RSA 326-B:11

Scope and carve-outs

The grant and the strings, at equal weight

Full scope: advanced assessment, diagnosing, prescribing, administering and dispensing controlled (including Schedule II-IV via telemedicine, with at least annual in-person or clinically appropriate follow-up) and non-controlled drugs. Statutory duty to consult, collaborate, or refer is triggered by clinical need, not by a mandatory physician relationship.

What Gale runs

The inventory, split honestly. Nothing dark is dressed as live.

In the product today

  • Chat runs the practice — say what you need in your own words, and Gale books it, finds the guide, or opens the screen already filled in.
  • Scheduling and the calendar.
  • Notes, with a scribe that drafts during the visit — you stay the final editor of every note.
  • Telehealth where the chart lives.
  • The patient record — see a sample chart, no signup.
  • Superbills for the patient who wants to claim out-of-network benefits.
  • The Fee Schedule — the one Gale document that states the fee.
  • Your practice page, in the public directory compiled from the NPPES registry.
  • Your credentials in one place — every license, DEA registration, board certification and plan enrollment you already hold, with reminders at 90, 60 and 30 days before one expires. Gale checks your NPI against the national registry and marks what it checked. It does not file applications; a credentialing service can.
  • Referrals from colleagues through your own link, acknowledged and booked in one place, and a view of which referral sources send you patients and which have gone quiet.
  • Practice notes on your public page, and your own notes on Gale’s health articles in the content library — credited to you, and nothing is public until you publish it.
  • An activity and access log that records who opened, changed or exported a patient’s chart, and when.
  • Connect Claude to set up your services, rates and hours by talking to it. It cannot open a patient record, move money or sign anything.

Opening with the founding cohort

  • Concierge memberships — a monthly plan your practice sells on its own terms. Not sellable yet: enrollment fails closed behind a legal switch until counsel clears it. No countdown — when it clears, it clears.
  • The loop tracker — every referral, lab, and question a visible loop with an owner, a state, and a promised window. Closing one requires an outcome note; nothing silently expires.
  • The guided founding sequence — practice setup walked step by step with the first cohort: entity, posted prices, the practice page, the first visit.
  • Currents — the regulatory watch for your state and the latest evidence for your specialty, dated, sourced, and re-verified on a standing cadence. Quiet weeks say so.

Built, on sample data for now

  • Insurance billing — a billing console, coding you review and attest, and every claim followed from draft to paid. Today a claim is checked by Gale’s own test system: nothing reaches a payer and no money moves.
  • Outreach — check-ins for patients who have drifted, drafted overnight for you to approve. Approving sends nothing yet; patient contact stays off until it opens.
  • Your panel, sorted so the patients who are due or slipping out of care come first — a sort order, not a prediction — with show rates and between-visit activity counted beside it.
  • Practice health — whether notes get signed and Good Faith Estimates go out on time.
  • Guidance monitoring — the between-visit guidance a patient chooses to share with you, with anything off track listed first. It fills as patients share.
  • Workbooks — your charts, claims, referral pipeline, compliance records and clinician roster as tables you can edit. New accounts start on a sample practice.
  • A desktop bridge and scheduled agents, for work that runs while you are away. A scheduled agent can never send a message, move money or sign anything.
The economics

No physician attached means no standing invoice between you and your own practice — the economics of independence here are unusually legible. What Gale adds is built to read the same way.

Gale’s side of the ledger is deliberately short. The software is free, and Gale earns one flat all-in fee on a transaction — charged only when your practice is actually paid, never as a subscription, never with per-feature line items, never a spread on your rate. The number itself lives in exactly one document, on purpose, so it can never quietly say two different things in two places: the Fee Schedule states it.
The playbook

The deepest state cluster we have built is California’s — eight guides on the 103/104 ladder, cited to the statute and the board’s own filings. They are California’s rules, not New Hampshire’s; the same treatment is coming state by state. Until then, they show the depth of homework to expect from us.
