Exciting News! 📣
The Improving Care and Access to Nurses (ICAN) Act has been reintroduced — a crucial step forward in expanding access to high-quality, affordable healthcare nationwide. This bipartisan legislation empowers APRNs to practice to the full scope of their education and training within Medicare and Medicaid, aligning federal policy with state-level practice laws.
At OAAPN, we are thrilled to see this progress and will be closely monitoring and supporting this legislation as it moves forward. It’s time to remove outdated barriers and unlock the full potential of APRNs to better serve our communities.
