In 2006, “health care expenditures reached $2.2 trillion, which translates to $7,421 per person or 16.2 percent of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product. The health-spending share of GDP reached 16.2 percent, up from 16.0 percent in 2006” (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, 2009, para. 1). With these figures along, you can understand the urgency behind containing cost, making accessible, and ensuring quality is important in health care. Making this also more beneficial for vulnerable populations.

The Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) is very critical to the organizations of healthcare and delivery systems. The regulations of the nursing board and the practice scope vary in different states. The practices could be independent, restricted, or reduced practices.

In the Philadelphia state, one could have an independent practice in any area related to the Advanced Practice Registered Nurses education and authorization concerning the population. The Philadelphia state regulations and choice of practice necessitate a combined accord with the doctors. This should be the case unless the Nursing Practitioner has some unique authorization from the board. So, the APRN’s can take part in the medical practices, therapeutic prescription and are not subject to any agreement and can work in any healthcare facility or doctors’ team (Woo et al., 2017).

In the New York state, some laws are set with guidelines or regulations and a scope of practice that necessitates the APRNs to practice with a qualified physician to work with the nursing practitioner’s field of practice and a written agreement and practice protocols. The new and qualified NP’s should also have a written combined accord and practice, which must work with physicians whose primary work is to diagnose disease and the patients’ physical conditions and offer treatment and corrective methods in their field of practice. The law of education in the New York state does not necessitate a doctor to oversee a nursing practitioner or to sign any of their order, charts, or accounts. The state of New York hold’s the Nursing Practitioners accountable for any medical procedure they get to perform on the patients (Altman et al., 2016).

The exploitation of nurses in their advanced practice to enhance the access of patients to emergency care is exciting and advantageous. The implementation of the Nursing practitioner’s role in a health care facility tends to enhance the outcomes of a patient (Woo et al., 2017). Also, the alteration of the delivery of health
