Abstract
Obtaining resources for sustainability of academic nursing centers is an ongoing challenge. Academic wellness centers face challenges related to the limited availability of insurance to meet demand and resources for state and local contracts or fee for service. Traditionally, state and local contracts and fee-for-service insurance plans do not cover preventive or wellness-related health services. In addition, third party reimbursement for wellness, disease prevention and health promotion, and health education services may be limited because of Current Procedural Terminology codes. An approach toward sustainability of the Duquesne University School of Nursing Nurse-Managed Wellness Center was to build on the human resources of volunteer retired nurses residing in the neighboring communities of the university.This article describes the RN+WIN program as a creative approach toward sustainability of an academic nurse—managed wellness center.
