Alabama Nurse Defense Lawyer – Board of Nursing Alabama Matter Pending? We Can Help – ANA Health Economist Contends Physicians’ Report Lowballs Percentage of NPs in Primary Care – (866) 348-2889
In a commentary published in Medscape Business of Medicine, ANA health economist Peter McMenamin, PhD, refutes a report touted by several physician groups that concludes that nurse practitioners may not be a viable solution to the primary care shortage. McMenamin uses data to challenge the report’s assumptions and conclusion that only about half of NPs work in primary care, saying it is a gross underestimate.
McMenamin demonstrates that the report dealt only with the specialties of physician clinicians who work in close physical proximity to NPs. Those conclusions were not based on the services that NPs actually performed.
