Скачать или смотреть Subcontracting in Patient Advocacy: What Independent Advocates Must Know Before They Scale

Subcontracting can be a powerful way to grow an independent patient advocacy practice or a fast way to create legal, financial, and boundary issues if it’s done without clarity.

In this episode of The Patient Advocate CEO Show, Nicole Broadhurst, former healthcare administrator turned independent patient advocate, breaks down what independent advocates need to know about subcontracting before they scale.

This conversation goes beyond surface-level advice and focuses on subcontracting as a professional business decision, not an informal workaround.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅Why clear subcontracting agreements are non-negotiable in advocacy businesses

✅Key legal considerations to be aware of, including state-specific regulations
✅How to structure working relationships that protect both you and your subcontractors
✅Common boundary issues that arise in subcontracting arrangements and how to prevent them
✅How to navigate difficult conversations with confidence and professionalism
✅Why community support and shared standards matter when building a subcontractor model

Subcontracting is not about giving work away, it’s about building a sustainable, well-structured advocacy practice that protects the patient, the advocate, and the business.

If you’re considering subcontracting or already working with other advocates, this episode will help you think like a CEO and make decisions rooted in clarity and leadership.
