Nurse Practitioners Banking in Texas — FAQ

Can nurse practitioners own a practice in Texas?

Texas requires a collaborative agreement with a physician for NP practice. You can still own your business, but you'll need a collaborating physician on record.

Most NP-owned practices in Texas form a PLLC or PC. Filing fee is $300. A PLLC provides liability protection and is the most common structure for healthcare professionals opening independent practices.

How much does it cost to open an NP practice in Texas?

Opening an NP practice in Texas typically costs $50,000–$200,000 depending on specialty and setting. Costs include office build-out, EHR system, medical equipment, credentialing, insurance, and initial operating capital. Many NPs start with telehealth to reduce overhead.

What banking features do NP practices need in Texas?
