House Bill 4472 would require advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) to practice as part of physician-led, patient-centered care teams, where they would practice within the scope of their usual professional activities, creating a care model that ensures rural and underserved communities have access to physician-led care.
Medicine is just too complex and unforgiving to not have the most experienced and highly trained health care providers involved in diagnosis and treatment decisions, leading the way to the best and safest outcomes. The patient-centered, physician-led care model is the only approach that ensures that Michigan’s patients receive the best possible care and the best possible outcomes.
