7 Legitimization Period 1970 s Across the US, legislative initiatives to change state laws and nurse practice acts st Family Nurse Practitioner Program at University of Washington FNP programs
8 Certification The American Nurses Association The first nurse practitioner certification exams Legitimized the role of NPs and led to more standardized practice outcomes
9 Slow Steady Growth Due largely to Federal Government funding NP education through grant programs administered by the United States Public Health Service, Division of Nursing.
10 New Expansion & Rapid Growth In 2001, the number of NPs in the United States is estimated to be 78,251 (Pearson, 2001, p. 26) Legislative victories lead to an increasingly independent role for the NP in practice: Third party reimbursement Prescriptive authority By the turn of the century, nurse practitioner programs had entered the mainstream of graduate education in nursing.

21 Why an Nurse Practitioner? NP s Provide Patient Centered Care NPs take the time to listen to patients' concerns, health and otherwise. NPs concentrate on preventative health care. NPs provide individualized, holistic (all encompassing) care.
22 The NPA of New York State The NPA was established in 1980 as a non-profit organization under the name The Nurse Practitioner Association, Inc. Since 1980, the NPA has grown financially, programmatically and increased the visibility and credibility of NPs within the healthcare community, at both the national and State levels of government, and with consumers throughout New York. The NPA is the voice of Nurse Practitioners in New York State. We offer our members the tools, resources, and information to advance the NP profession, and an effective and successful advocacy program dedicated to advancing and protecting NPs in all of New York State.
23 Historical Overview of NPA 1980 The Nurse Practitioner Association, Inc. was formed 1981 Organized meetings begin in Syracuse, NY under the name of Coalition of Organized Nurse Practitioners Associations (COONPA) 1985 First Annual Convention and Educational Conference in Albany, NY 1988 Landmark legislation authorizing title and scope of practice for NPs 1988/1992 Acquired prescriptive authority and ultimately full DEA prescriptive authority 1991 The Coalition of Nurse Practitioners renamed New York State Coalition of Nurse Practitioners (NYSCONP)
24 Historical Overview of NPA 1992 The American College of Nurse Practitioners (ACNP) established with NYSCONP as a founding member with a seat on the Board 1993 Education Law amended allowing referrals for physical and occupational therapy 1993 Medicaid reimbursement at 100% of the physician s rate enacted 1997 Medicare reimbursement at 85% of the physician's rate enacted 1998 NYSCONP forms a Political Action Committee (PAC) 1999 NYSCONP hires its first full-time paid executive and professional staff and opens Albany office 2002 NYSCONP begins doing business as The Nurse Practitioner Association New York State (The NPA)

Two bills are signed into law: The Medical Emergency Utility Services Bill, and the Handicap License Plates Bill.
26 Bills NPA is Sponsoring Before NYS Legislature Patient Access & Advocacy Act - A.765 (Gottfried)/S.2948 (Montgomery)- Removal of Statutory Collaboration & Reimbursement Reimbursement Assurance - A.6651 (Gottfried)/S4490 (Duane) - To assure health plans do not deny reimbursement for services rendered by nurse practitioners acting within their lawful scope Access Protection - A.7877 (Gottfried)/S4491 (Duane) - To promote practice opportunities for nurse practitioners by prohibiting health plans from excluding nurse practitioners from their provider networks and to insure that reimbursement rates are reasonable NP Worker's Compensation Access Act - A.3704 (John)/S.3908 (Duane) - Authorizing NPs to fully participate within and be reimbursed under the worker's compensation program in NYS as a legislative study bill
27 Bills NPA is Sponsoring Before NYS Legislature Immunization Bill - A.6654 (Gottfried)/S.4070 (Montgomery) - To add NPs to the category of persons legally qualified to certify that an immunization required by section 2164 of the public health law may be detrimental to a child's health NPA License Plates - A.4829 (Morelle) - Adding a new Section 404-x to the vehicle and traffic law to provide for the issuance of distinctive plates for members of the NPA Death Certificate Bill - A.2028-A (John)/S.2969 (Montgomery) - Authorizing NPs to sign death certificates Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR) - A.1719 (Gottfried)/S.2947-A (Hannon) - Authorizing NPs to issue orders not to resuscitate
28 Bills NPA is Sponsoring Before NYS Legislature Other bills monitored for provider neutrality: Timothy's Law - A.5301 (Morelle) - this legislation would make technical amendments to make the law "provider neutral" by adding language to include nurse practitioners. Collaborative Drug Management Therapy - A.6848 (Canestrari)/S.3292 (LaValle) - Authorizes pharmacists to perform collaborative drug therapy managment with physicians in certain settings.
