MiRadiologists have valid concerns about current legislation that proposes to expand the scope of practice for nurse practitioners (NPs). This legislation would allow NPs to provide care that physicians spend years training to become qualified to give patients. By forgoing that essential training and expertise, Senate Bill 279 and House Bill 6167 puts every citizen in Michigan at risk by compromising standards of care and patient safety. 

This legislation is detrimental to the current physician-led team in radiology that is so critical to ensuring safe medical practice.

Take action today by contacting your state legislators and urging them to OPPOSE SB 279 and HB 6167.
