  Examine a national healthcare issue and consider how that issue may impact your work setting.

 
If you were to ask 10 people what they believe to be the most significant issue facing healthcare today, you might get 10 different answers. Escalating costs? Regulation? Technology disruption? Social Determinant such as environment/community, education, access/quality to healthcare?
These and many other topics are worthy of discussion. Not surprisingly, much has been said in the research, within the profession, and in the news about these topics. Whether they are issues of finance, quality, workload, or outcomes, there is no shortage of changes to be addressed.
In this Discussion, you examine a national healthcare issue and consider how that issue may impact your work setting. You also analyze how your organization has responded to this issue.

Assume you are organizing a wheelchair rugby event that will attract 30 teams over five days. What would be your primary requirements when soliciting bids? What would be the most important factors in choosing a location?
Hint: You should identify and prioritize what you would need to execute an event like this one.
Based on the event in the preceding question, assume that sports commissions from each of the following three cities have bid on your event. Which of the following would you choose and why?

Metropolis

Large city with 7,000 hotel rooms
66,000 square foot convention center that can hold five basketball courts
Home to numerous attractions (amusement parks, museums, etc.) and restaurants
A history of hosting sporting events for all age groups

Middlesboro

Medium-sized city with 1,200 hotel rooms
204,000 square foot convention center that can hold 12 basketball courts
Centrally located, with easy highway and airport access
A history of hosting large recreational events for different types of sports

Smallville

Small city with 600 hotel rooms
100,000 square foot convention center that can hold six basketball courts
Home to a nationally recognized adapted sports training center
A history of hosting small sporting events for physically handicapped athletes

Hint:  Each of the hypothetical cities has something different to offer (and different limitations). You should match the city with your event based on the factors that you prioritized in the prior answer.

Identify and describe practice barriers for all four APNs roles in your state and discuss these barriers on a state and national level. The four roles include the nurse midwife, nurse anesthetist, nurse practitioner, and clinical nurse specialist.

Claire Steininger

Identify and describe practice barriers for all four APNs’ roles in your state and discuss these barriers on a state and national level. The four roles include the nurse midwife, nurse anesthetist, nurse practitioner, and clinical nurse specialist.

Nurse midwives often struggle with scope of practice limitations and the necessity for collaborative agreements, which can sometimes disrupt their ability to provide comprehensive care. Nurse anesthetists may face restrictions, such as supervision requirements and inconsistent reimbursement policies, limiting their autonomy in anesthesia care. Nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists confront barriers like collaborative agreements and scope of practice restrictions, which can affect their capacity to deliver primary and specialized care independently. These state-level obstacles are further complicated by variations in laws and regulations across the country. At the national level, lack of consistency and autonomy make it challenging for APNs to provide consistent, high-quality healthcare (Peterson, 2018).

Identify forms of competition on the state and national level that interfere with APNs’ ability to practice independently.

At the state level, one form of competition arises from established healthcare hierarchies and interests. Physicians’ groups and medical associations often lobby for laws and regulations that restrict APN autonomy to protect their traditional roles in healthcare. With a limited scope of practice, APNs are sometimes forced to adhere to physician regulations. On the national level, Medicare reimbursement rates and federal funding allocations can be influenced by powerful stakeholders, including pharmaceutical companies, insurance providers, and large healthcare systems. These sources may advocate for regulations that favor their interests instead of that of others (Galvani et al., 2020).

Identify the specific lawmakers by name at the state level (i.e., key members of the state’s legislative branch and executive branch of government)

In Florida, the governor Ron DeSantis, is the head of the executive branch. Jeanette Nunez is the lieutenant governor, Ashley Moody is the attorney general, Jimmy Patronis is the chief financial officer, and Wilton Simpson is the agricultural commissioner. On the legislative side, the senate president is Kathleen Passidomo, the house speaker is Paul Renner, the majority leader for the senate is Ben Albritton and for the house is Michael Grant. Lastly, the minority leader for the senate is Lauren Book and for the house is Fentrice Driskell (BallotPedia, 2022).

Discuss interest groups that exist at the state and national levels that influence APN policy.

At the state level, physician groups often advocate for policies that maintain their traditional roles and may oppose measures that grant APNs greater autonomy. Oppositely, nursing associations like the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) and American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) work to advance APN practice, pushing for full scope of practice and reimbursement policy changes to enhance access to care. On the national level, there are also national nursing organizations like the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) and the National Council of Nurse Practitioners (NCNP) that actively advocate for APN policy changes that can promote independent practice (Brom et al., 2018).

Discuss methods used to influence change in policy in forms of competition, state legislative and executive branches of government, and interest groups.

Some methods used to influence change in policy include political campaigns and quality and safety initiatives. Supporting candidates who are sympathetic to APN issues and policy changes through campaign contributions and grassroots mobilization can influence election outcomes, ultimately affecting the composition of legislative and executive branches. APNs can also participate in quality and safety initiatives to demonstrate a commitment to high-quality care and patient well-being can enhance their credibility and influence (Cullerton et al., 2018).
