About the Course

The Elite Nurse Practitioner and Heather Quaile, DNP, are proud to announce The Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Course! This course is designed for the nurse practitioner who is interested in an affordable way to integrate bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) pellets into their existing practice. The material provided in this curriculum also prepares NPs to open a standalone hormone replacement therapy practice specializing in BHRT pellets. 

We tailored our BHRT pellet course to the specific needs of a nurse practitioner. Learn the clinical and business components of this lucrative niche and get firsthand insight from fellow NPs who have successfully implemented these services into their practice. Our course is more cost-effective than other comparable courses, with no strings attached. The Elite Nurse Practitioner strives to equip NPs with knowledge to flourish in their clinical focus areas, and we are thrilled to introduce you to this high-demand, high-profit service line.  

As patients age, they want to look and feel better. This creates high demand for hormone replacement therapy in all forms. The value of bioidentical hormone pellet services is in the multi-billion dollar range, presenting an excellent opportunity for astute medical professionals to get in on this cutting-edge field. Nurse practitioners who offer BHRT have the potential to generate hundreds of dollars per patient, per visit, using cash or insurance-based payment models.  

This course is designed to teach nurse practitioners with zero experience in BHRT pellet therapy how to integrate this in-demand service into their practice. This course covers all the clinical aspects of BHRT pellet therapy, ensuring safe and effective delivery to your patients. We also cover all the business aspects of BHRT pellet therapy, including supply ordering, pellet manufacturers, marketing, and the financial components necessary to get started today. 

Recorded videos of pellet insertion are also included. Each video depicts Heather performing procedures on real patients and includes detailed voiceover instructions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I have unlimited access to this course? 

You can access this course however many times you want for however long you want. All Elite Nurse Practitioner Courses are pre-recorded and accessible indefinitely. 

I already offer HRT services at my practice. Why should I take this course? 

This course will teach NPs how to add an additional hormone delivery method into their practice. Many patients actively seek pellets over other delivery methods (injections, creams, etc.). If you want to create a robust practice and meet patient demand, you can consider offering BHRT pellets in addition to injections, creams, torches, etc. 

Can I offer BHRT pellets as the only hormone delivery method in my practice? 

Many nurse practitioners only provide pellet therapy in their practice and do very well, but The Elite Nurse Practitioner advises offering multiple delivery options to patients. Some patients will prefer injections, others will prefer creams, and others will want pellets. Therefore, if you want to build a comprehensive hormone replacement therapy practice, you should consider utilizing various delivery options. However, it’s also possible to build a thriving standalone BHRT pellet clinic.

Can I provide these services digitally or through mobile medicine?  

Yes! You can perform the initial evaluation, order the labs, and even do follow-up visits via telemedicine. You would then need to see the patient in-person (at their home) to insert the pellets. This ‘hands-off’ business model makes for a great low overhead practice.  

Do I need a specialized certification to prescribe and administer BHRT pellets? 

This falls within the scope of practice for any nurse practitioner. This course will provide the necessary knowledge to safely administer BHRT pellets. 

Do I need prior knowledge about hormone replacement therapy before taking this course? 

You do not need to have prior knowledge of hormone replacement therapy principles before starting this course. We cover the foundational knowledge you need to know to get started with pellets but be aware that we are not going to cover any additional delivery methods or advanced concepts. More in-depth information on hormonal medicine is shared in our Women's Health and Men's Health Courses. This course will provide the necessary knowledge to begin utilizing BHRT pellets in your practice. 

Do I need to have hands on experience to insert hormone pellets? 

Inserting pellets into the subcutaneous tissue of a patient is extremely easy to learn and do. If you can start an IV, you can insert pellets into a patient. No prior procedural skills are necessary to do this. Once you understand the procedure, you can choose to practice this on dummy tissue to get comfortable with the steps. 

Will this course go over how to market a BHRT pellet clinic? 

Yes! We will cover various marketing topics and techniques to help get patients through the door and increase your practice’s volume! 

I already own a practice. Will this course benefit me? 

You can implement BHRT pellets into any type of practice to increase patient volume and revenue. 

Would this course benefit me if I do not own a practice? 

The topics covered in this course can be integrated into any type of practice that treats aging patients. The services and products discussed will help improve the quality of life in your patients, regardless of your specialty. 

Is having a DEA number necessary? 

Yes. Testosterone pellets require an active DEA license to prescribe, as it is a schedule III medication. 

Will this offer CME? 

This course offers 7 CE hours. The Elite Nurse Practitioner is credentialed as a CEU provider through the ANCC. CEU awarded through The Elite Nurse Practitioner applies to ANCC, AANP, and all boards of nursing. 

Will this course provide a certificate of completion? 

A certificate is issued at the end of the course that will show the CEU hours and verify your completion of this course. You can use this certificate for insurance reimbursement through your malpractice carrier.
