Bill Summary
Authorizing a physician assistant to sign, certify, stamp, verify, or endorse a document that requires the signature, certification, stamp, verification, or endorsement of a physician; authorizing an advanced registered nurse practitioner to sign, certify, stamp, verify, or endorse a document that requires the signature, certification, stamp, verification, or endorsement of a physician within the framework of an established protocol and under supervision, etc.
AI Summary
This bill authorizes physician assistants (PAs) and advanced registered nurse practitioners (ARNPs) to sign, certify, stamp, verify, or endorse documents that would normally require a physician's signature or endorsement, except for the authority to issue a written approval to release a patient from a receiving facility. The bill aims to expand the scope of practice for PAs and ARNPs, allowing them to perform certain tasks independently within the framework of an established protocol and under the supervision of a physician.
