And many states are sure they can without supervision of a doctor.

Yes but they also leave the local hospital’s in charge of deciding who can practice unsupervised in their facility. The CRNAs are doing the easy stuff independently in those states. They aren’t doing the high acuity complex stuff solo.

Check the big name institutions in the opt out states. They aren’t using independent CRNAs.
