Full Practice Authority for Nurse Practitioners
According to Monica Barfield, full practice authority for nurse practitioners does not harm patients, but rather helps them.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced its Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP), a $50 billion, five-year federal investment to improve rural health care.
This program marks a shift in how states will be rewarded for removing barriers to care, with part of each state's technical score depending on its scope-of-practice environment.
Full practice authority does not harm patients; it helps them.
- The program's Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) opened on Sept. 5, 2025.
- Awards will be announced by December 31.
