Productivity Measures: Empowering Oncology Nurse Practitioners to Understand and Demonstrate Value in Practice

Oncology nurse practitioners (ONPs) are essential providers of oncology care who work in a variety of practice settings. ONPs add to productivity in practice, but the way in which productivity is measured may not capture their full contributions and value. A greater understanding of productivity measures can empower ONPs to communicate and demonstrate their full value in practice.

AT A GLANCE

• As providers of oncology care, ONPs need to understand the way in which their productivity in practice is measured. 
• Many factors contribute to challenges in measuring the full contributions and value of ONPs. 
• Understanding the ways in which productivity can be measured and the challenges in applying those measures can empower ONPs to better show their value in practice.
