     Here, in the state of Florida, one of the main barriers was the clause that nurse practitioners must work on the sponsorship of a physician or within close proximity of a physician. That has been relaxed by legislation that says only nurse can work in most sectors of healthcare, without oversight of a physician, this allows APRNs autonomy in a medspa, primary care clinics and/or even telemedicine when working independently and as an entrepreneur.

    Since June of 2020, Florida operates under “Full practice”policy, which allows nurses that have proof of at least 3000 clinical hours of experience and graduate level pharmacology and differential diagnosis courses, the privilege to operate autonomously in primary care, med spas and even telemedicine under this regulation. This is considered to be the gold standard as APRNs are now able to register as an Autonomous Advanced Practice Registered Nurse and practice to the full extent of their role (Fla. BON, 2023) 

     With just just three short years ago, APRNs had to work under the supervision or sponsorship of a physician that was either either working in the practice or had a vested interest in a clinic where the APRN is practicing. Some states may also hold a prescriptive regulation or the APRN whereas they can only order certain schedules and medications. In some instances there may be pushback from physicians who do not co-sign the concept of nurse practitioners and or having the privileges that they are allowed believing that they are not trained like physicians. In some communities nurse practitioners may not be a choice of patients to be examined by and may just prefer their doctor instead.

     For midwives in Florida, some of the barriers include the need to have a supervisory agreement with a Florida licensed physician for post graduate supervisory hours A lack of recognition as primary care providers on Medicaid and Medicare and private insurance company provider panels and other restrictions. (Hastings, et al, 2018)

     CRNAs have barriers such a lack of fair reimbursement by third-party, payers,  stating that they are not trained on the same skill level as physicians and failure of some of the other surgical groups or colleagues to recognize CRNAs as board certified to administer anesthesia. (Toney, 2023)

     Rep. Cary Pigman (R-Sebring) and Sen. Jeff Brandes (R-St. Petersburg) joined members of the interest groups for APRNs the Florida Association of Nurse Anesthetists (https://www.fana.org/)and the Florida Nurse Practitioner Network (https://fnpn.enpnetwork.com/) in making new legislation that forwards, the causes nurse practitioners and pushes for more independence for them as well.
