NURSE PRACTITIONER COLLABORATIVE PRACTICE AGREEMENT WISCONSIN

NPs may prescribe substances from The II-V Control List if they have been
delegated under a cooperation agreement. Certainly. Admin. Code § N8.06 (2) The
Wisconsin Nursing Practices Act: Anesthesiologists for nurses providing
independent anesthesia care in Wisconsin are licensed as professional nurses
(pursuant to p. 441.001(4)) and must also be certified as Advanced Practice
Prescribing Nurses (APNs) (see p. 441.16). If an anesthesiologist is not also an
APNP, the anesthesiologist must practice under the supervision or direction of a
physician or other health care provider whose field of activity includes
anesthesia. Examples of these other providers would be dentists or podiatrists.
The Wisconsin Board of Nursing has issued bylaws on the interpretation of the
APNP Act. These can be found in N 8 of the Wisconsin Administrative Code.
Specifically, the Wisconsin Medical Society has told its members that nurse
anesthetologists, who are also PPNAs, can practice without medical supervision.

Please note that these are only examples. Documenting a collaborative
relationship between a cRNA and a physician could also take other forms. The
crucial point is that the nurse`s anesthesiologist has the legal responsibility
to document the collaboration with a doctor. It should also be noted that a
physician working with an Advanced Practice Nurse Prescriber (APNP) is not
automatically or necessarily responsible for the actions of the APNP. Remember
our previous discussion on cooperation and administrative rule N 8, the way of
working with nurses` anesthesiologists recognizes that each health professional
brings his “particular specialty”. Therefore, the cooperative provision for
anesthesiologists and other apNPs in Wisconsin recognizes the specialty of the
physician and anesthesiologist. For nurse anesthesiologists who do not practice
independently — those who are supervised or directed — there may be medical
liability, depending on the level of medical advice and control that occurred or
should have occurred in a particular case. So, if a physician does not want to
be responsible for the actions of an anesthesiologist, one could say that it is
better to work with an anesthesiologist who practices independently and
collaboratively than to supervise or direct the nurse`s anesthesiologist. The
American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP 2017) defines three laws of
practical authority nationwide: Overview: Federal regulations and Wisconsin law
(an administrative judge, the medical review committee, and the governor)
provide that nursing anesthesiologists are able to provide anesthesia care
independently and without medical supervision or instruction. The combination of
these provisions and administrative decisions is the so-called opt-out. These
policy decisions are based on substantial evidence that the patient`s results
are identical, whether the anesthesia is performed by an anesthesiologist of a
nurse or by a doctor (anesthesiologist).

In addition to quality, maintaining nurses` anesthesia is generally more
cost-effective than providing care by an anesthesiologist. The ability of
Wisconsin`s registered nursing anesthesiologists to practice independently is a
desirable option for hospitals. Related federal regulations allow hospitals to
bill Medicare for independent anesthesia care by nursing anesthesiologists…
Under applicable law, APRNs operate under their own licenses and assume full
responsibility for patient care. The law does not require the doctor to provide
education or training to the APRN or to see one of the patients treated by the
APRN in cooperation or consultation. However, the doctor is able and will likely
take care of a percentage of the APRN billing as part of the agreement.
Legislative cooperation agreements also create arbitrary barriers to care. In a
letter published in October 2018, the Wisconsin Policy Forum reported that 20 of
Wisconsin`s 72 counties do not have a practicing psychiatrist. Several other
counties share a single psychiatrist. To practice in these underserved counties,
psychiatric nurses who are trained, trained, and authorized to provide mental
health care would need to enter into a collaborative practice agreement with a
physician who has less training and training in behavioral health. The other
option is to enter into a collaborative practice agreement with a physician who
does not practice in that county and does not know the local population or
behavioral health resources.

In addition, chapter 441 of the Nursing Practice Act deals with the ability of
nurse anesthetologists to practice independently and without medical supervision
and control. The Nursing Council has issued an administrative rule, N 8, for
anesthesiologists and other advanced practice nurses who work with physicians. A
provision in N 8 requires nurses` anesthesiologists to document their
collaboration with a physician. To ensure oversight and collaboration among
nurse anesthetologists, some Wisconsin hospitals prefer to follow these
guidelines through their bylaws. The following is an effective approach to treat
the situation in which anesthesia is performed by an anesthesiologist of the
nurse who practices independently (without medical instruction or control), but
cooperation is involved. The main task of the anesthesiologist (Certified
Registered Nurse Anesthetist) is to provide high-quality care to the patient who
needs anesthesia services. In collaboration with the family doctor and/or
surgeon or other physician, the nurse`s anaesthetist assists the patient and/or
the doctor or other physician in choosing the most appropriate anesthetic or
anesthetic procedure for the patient`s medical indication given the patient`s
state of health prior to the procedure. The nurse anesthetist will document the
collaboration. Documentation can be done in different ways.

For example, both an anaesthetist and a nursing doctor could sign a simple joint
statement. A copy of such an agreement is attached to the present note. The
hospital where the anesthesiologist is caring for the nurse could include a
provision on cooperation in its by-laws. A copy of this approach is also
attached. The nurse`s anesthesiologist was able to document the collaboration
with the physician for the preoperative evaluation of the anesthesia. A copy of
this approach is also attached. The first step in giving the FN full authority
at the national level is to understand the current practical environments of the
state. The intent of this Practice Agreement is to authorize __[name of
CRNA-APNP]_, at __[name of hospital]__, to practice as a Certified Registered
Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) in the State of Wisconsin for the CRNA – Advanced
Practice Nurse Prescriber (APNP).

The APNP NASC will practice physicians from ___[hospital name]__ in the role of
CRNA in collaboration with qualified medical staff. This agreement aims to
document a collaborative relationship. Wisconsin residents are concerned about
access to quality health care. This is especially true in rural areas like the
community where I live and work as a geriatric nurse. Wait times for
appointments and clinic visits can be long. Coverage may be limited or
non-existent, as may provider and patient awareness of available options and
services. Overview: Federal regulations and Wisconsin law (an administrative
judge, the medical examination board, and the governor) provide that
anesthesiologists are able to perform anesthesia independently and without
medical supervision or instruction. The combination of these rules and
administrative decisions is the so-called “opt-out”. These strategic decisions
are based on substantial evidence that patient outcomes are the same whether the
anesthesia is performed by an anesthesiologist or a physician
(anesthesiologist). Aside from the fact that the quality is the same, anesthesia
care is generally more cost-effective for nurses than the care of an
anesthesiologist.

The ability of licensed anesthesiologists in Wisconsin to practice independently
presents hospitals with a desirable option. Associated federal regulations allow
hospitals to bill Medicare for independent anesthesia care provided by nurse
anesthesiologists. The relevant Wisconsin law confirms that anesthesiologists
for nurses have the necessary scope of practice to provide the independent care
on which medicare state reimbursement regulations are based. This memo provides
more information about how Wisconsin Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists
(CRNAs) perform care and the regulatory requirements that apply to them.
Professional Misconduct Liability: Under Wisconsin law, nurses`
anesthesiologists are covered separately by the state`s Malpractice Fund, the
Injured Patients and Families Compensation Fund (see 655,001(9)). That is, all
nurse-anesthesiologists practicing in Wisconsin must (compulsorily) maintain
coverage through the Injured Patient and Family Compensation Fund, as is
required for all physicians. Wisconsin does not have a “ship captain” doctrine
when providers like nurse anesthetists care for patients treated by a doctor.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court specifically stated that the doctrine is not
recognized in our state. Therefore, a physician is not automatically responsible
for the actions of other health care providers who care for an ordinary patient.
On the contrary, the degree of supervision and control of the physician over the
care provided by the anesthesiologist is important in certain circumstances.

Currently allowed to work in 22 states and two U.S. states…
