It’s 10:30am and I’ve already had 2 patients who thought they saw a doctor recently when it was a PA. Can PAs stop misleading patients?

It shouldn't take a patient death for this to happen. ALL GP practices should follow suit before the next disaster - not after. And hospitals should ensure that PAs are acting in the capacity that the role was developed for - Physician Assistant. pulsetoday.co.uk/news/clinical-…

SB230 needs to pass. Too many Floridians being duped and harmed even killed because they’re intentionally being misled to believe they’re seeing a Medical Doctor! @GovRonDeSantis #Florida #MedTwitter #PatientSafety

There’s nothing outdated about prohibiting unqualified people from practicing medicine.

The Texas House passed H.B. 2556, which aims to alleviate the physician shortage by introducing a new medical license that will allow medical school graduates and certain foreign physicians to join the workforce under the guidance of a licensed physician.

We have let nurse practitioners play doctor too long in this country. Their training is woefully lacking to practice medicine independently. Just compare their training to that of a physician (or even dog groomer) #txlege #medtwitter

The core education doesn't prepare NPs for the reality of practice. Especially since NP students don't have any experience going in. It's the preceptor/mentor/collaborating MD that makes the difference in NPs practice. DNP hasn't done anything but address ego.

HB4404 is a cleverly disguised bill in the form of an Interstate Compact: the Compact’s position will override State’s own regulatory agencies (much like Fed Gov). Pls Vote NO. #stopScopeCreep #TXLEGE #ptsafety #MedTwitter @TSAPhysicians

Expanding APRN/Nurse Anesthetists' scope of practice under HB4404 isn't in the best interest of Texas patients' safety. Let's stand together and support physician-led anesthesia care, vote NO on #HB4404. tsa.org/advocacy/ #PatientSafety #medtwitter #StopScopeCreep #txlege

Restrictions exist for a reason. To protect the public. This is what happens when you permit NPs to practice medicine w/o a license. They have no idea what the medical standard is, nor should they, since they are nurses. authenticmedicine.com/2020/01/a-trag… authenticmedicine.com/2020/09/a-trag…


Nice chart. Something is missing though. Something big. Something that amounts to 10-15k hours of training. Interesting omission.

The educational difference between a Family Nurse Practitioner(70% of NPs today) and Family Medicine physician. Different professions, different education, different licenses. Appears functionally the same but is not the same.

That is practicing medicine w/o a medical license...which has been legalized by legislators. Where else in any country can someone with a master's degree practice medicine(NPs are RN's with master's degrees)? The Wisconsin governor got it. That education matters. And said no.

Something I've seen dozens of times: NP accused of malpractice. Plaintiffs hire a physician expert witness. Lawsuit dismissed because a physician is not qualified to criticize an NP in many jurisdictions (they don't have "similar training").
