HB 2183 Nurse practitioners; practice authority upon licensure.
Introduced by: Roxann L. Robinson | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Nurse practitioners; practice authority upon licensure. Removes the requirement that nurse practitioners, other than a nurse practitioner licensed by the Boards of Medicine and Nursing in the category of certified nurse midwife, certified registered nurse anesthetist, or clinical nurse specialist, who meet certain conditions may practice without a practice agreement only if they have completed the equivalent of at least five years of full-time clinical experience as a licensed nurse practitioner. The bill also removes patient care team requirements for nurse practitioners. The bill removes the existing provision allowing a physician to serve as a patient care team physician on a patient care team with up to 10 nurse practitioners licensed in the category of psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner, thus limiting any patient care team physician to a patient care team with no more than six nurse practitioners.
