Listen "Texas Scope of Practice Hearing Part 2: NP testimony"
Episode Synopsis
In the last episode, you heard some of my testimony at the Texas Interim Legislature hearing on Scope of Practice. Today you're going to hear from a nurse practitioner, Holly Jeffries, who is practicing in rural Texas.Her testimony was particularly impactful and really quite persuasive to legislators. I think it's important to understand the NP point of view and also learn the concerns of legislators by listening to their line of questioning.Referenced in the podcast:Facts about NP primary care numbers (HRSA shows much fewer doing primary care than AANP represents): https://youtu.be/AqyUdQZ-9fYSupervising physicians sued without ever seeing or being consulted on a patient: https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/990494?form=fpfhttps://youtu.be/GlfPSnHgC1Ahttps://www.jucm.com/supervising-doctors-may-be-held-liable-in-malpractice-suits/https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/acep/106708Increasing rates of malpractice and adverse reports for NPs: https://youtu.be/EOeGhR2uUSUPhysiciansForPatientProtection.org
