Michigan Senate Bill 279 proposes to expand the scope of practice for nurse practitioners
The Michigan Osteopathic Association (MOA) and the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) are actively opposing a bill in the Michigan Senate (S.B. 279) that proposes to expand the scope of practice for nurse practitioners without the necessary increases in education and testing. MOA President Andrew D. Adair, DO, recently sent an advocacy alert email (LINK) encouraging the osteopathic profession to act by sending their state senators an email asking them to oppose this bill. As written this bill could compromise patient safety and the quality of care in Michigan. The MOA continues to emphasize the critical role of osteopathic physicians in maintaining healthcare standards and is advocating for the profession and patient well-being by providing testimony against the bill.
This initiative underscores the MOA's commitment to building a better future for osteopathic physicians and patients by engaging in legislative advocacy. Be sure to join the cause by sending your state senator an email today.
