My point is that you're saying "Oh, wait until an NP kills someone, then they'll change this back", as if physicians don't kill patients
Are physicians not held to a higher standard than NP's are?
Do they both have the same licensure process?
Do they both have similar training lengths?
I am asking redundant questions because we both know they are not the same, yet one wants to be treated as such.
That would be like me hiring an electrician to install a Telecom site. He may have years of experience and skillset, but still couldn't do the job properly and under different guidelines.

Does the bill say that the NPs can perform the exact same work as an MD? Are we going to have NPs performing open heart surgery, renal transplants, or knee replacements? Or, are the NPs going to continue doing what they are currently doing, without their babysitter getting paid to sign off on their work?
