ESSAY : Differentiate the Major Regulatory Restrictions on NP Practice

Use the provided template to compare and contrast the three major regulatory practice models for NPs: Supervisory, Collaborative, and Independent. Please keep this assignment in the template format provided. This Assignment requires credible and up to date resources for each category. Include in each model at least one state that represents the scope of practice you are discussing. For example, Florida requires a supervisory relationship with a physician along with a practice agreement, formulary, and protocols. In order to apply and receive a DEA license to prescribe controlled substances, you must be approved by the state you are practicing in to prescribe these medications.

SAMPLE SOLUTION

Topic	Supervisory Practice	Collaborative Practice	Independent Practice
List the name of a State that is representative of each  regulatory model	Florida	Alabama	Montana
Evaluate how each model affects the NPs scope of practice?	NP’s scope of practice is restricted. He or she cannot deliver services without the supervision of physicians (Buppert, 2017).    A practice agreement, formulary and protocols are mandatory. In order to apply and receive a DEA license to prescribe controlled substances, one must be approved by the state that they are practicing in to prescribe these medications (Buppert, 2017).   The two mechanisms employed include chart-review and on-site time requirements. The former require physicians to review the entire NP’s patient chart  while the latter expect physicians to supervise NPs in person around the clock	NPs form part of the existing healthcare team and offers comprehensive care to patients (Schadewaldt, McInnes, Hiller & Gardner, 2013).   He or she shares accountability with the physician in charge.   Employs chart-review and on-site time requirements. The former require physicians to review some sections of NP’s patient chart while the latter expect physicians to monitor NPs work regularly (Schadewaldt et al., 2013).	NPs can examine, diagnose as well as treat patients in the same manner that physicians do (Poghosyan, Boyd & Knutson, 2014).   NPs are allowed to offer patient care without the involvement of a physician (Poghosyan et al., 2014).
