We have two bill numbers! Now's the time to act!
Ask legislators to support House Bill 971 and House Bill 983
Ask legislators to support House Bill 971 and House Bill 983
VCNP is continuing to advocate for full practice authority for Virginia's NPs and is supporting House Bill 971 and House Bill 793. Both bills reduce the transition to practice requirement to two years and allow certain NPs to oversee patient care teams by changing "patient care team physician" to "patient care team provider." The bills define "patient care team provider" as a patient care team physician, as defined in relevant law, or an NP whoo meets certain requirements. Contact all legislators and ask them for their support to move NP practice forward!
