Action Needed Today for the Home Health and Improvement Act

Right now Congress is setting the health care agenda for the rest of 2015, we must call on them to support the Home Health Planning and Improvement Act (S. 578/H.R. 1342). Members of Congress need to understand that nurse practitioners must be able to certify the assessments for home health services. This will increase access to care and reduce needless costs and delays to the millions of patients that choose to receive their care from a nurse practitioner.

Now is the time, to come together to make certain that our voices are heard so that this legislation is given the priority it deserves. We ask that each of you use this link to contact your Members of Congress today to ask them to support the Home Health Planning and Improvement Act (S. 578/H.R. 1342) and that they urge the committees of jurisdiction to take action on these bills. Additionally, please share this link with other NPs and anyone else who is in support of removing barriers to practice for nurse practitioners.
