Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioners Offer
Real Health Care Savings During Statewide Rallies on Saturday

Florida taxpayers could save more than 339 million dollars each year if state lawmakers follow the recommendations of their own study and allow Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioners to practice to their ability. Florida is one of only two states (Alabama is the other) that restrict ARNP’s scope of practice. Join us as we spread the word about increased access and lower health care costs.

Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioners can increase safe quality access to health care while decreasing costs and creating jobs. Florida is in the midst of a health care crisis, a budget shortfall, a physician shortage and high unemployment. Because of these economic factors, patients are unable to access health care while state legislators continue to refuse to allow other qualified health care practitioners to meet those patients’ needs. ARNPs can immediately increase access to care, create jobs and save this state millions of dollars per year if restrictions to their ability to practice are removed.
