Hi All: Attached is a legislative summary for this past session. A couple of issues are still in play, most importantly the CRNA's attempt to prevent NPs/ PA's from ordering certain specific sedating medications, like propofol. We felt this to be detrimental to access to care for our patients and unnecessarily restrictive to our licenses.  

The other issue is if one of your legislators signed on to one of the bills listed, please send a thank you.  It can be attached to an email
