1 MAINTAINING STATE BASED REGULATION IN A CHANGING HEALTH CARE ENVIRONMENT: CONVINCING 50 JURISDICTIONS TO WORK TOGETHER TO FACILITATE CROSS BORDER PRACTICE Katherine Thomas Executive Director Texas Board of Nursing President Elect NCSBN Our Current Regulatory Model is Not Sustainable Drivers of Change Insurance Coverage Convenient Care Access to Care Prevent Chronic Illness Affordable Care Alternative Models of Care?? Decrease Medical Errors and Regulation 1
2 Telehealth Improve Rural Access Bring Specialists Where Needed Maintain Independence Decrease Readmissions Teach Patients Self-Management Growth = Increasing Demand Population of the United States estimated to be 322,583,006 (July 2014) U.S. ranks number 3 in the list of countries by population. 2012, the US spent an average of $8,915 per person on health care, reaching a total of $2.8 trillion 1 in every 8 Americans are older persons (2000). More than 2 X their number in 2030 In 2010, persons 65 and over, accounted for one-third of health spending but made up just 13% of the population Blurring of State Boundaries and Regulation 2
3 Challenges for Licensure Over 100 years of evolution of current model Why multiple licenses? Cost Bureaucracy Delays affecting access to care and employment Lack of Jurisdiction across borders Patients rights to file a complaint What is an Interstate Compact? Compacts are contracts between states creating an agreement that carries the force of statutory law NLC Status Initially adopted by NCSBN in 1997 Enacted by 24 states as of March 2015 Revisions adopted May 4, 2015 and Regulation 3
4 NLC Status: 25 States APRN Compact Status Initially adopted by NCSBN in Adopted by 3 states in Revisions adopted by NCSBN on May 4, 2015 Nurse Practitioners Nurse Anesthetists Nurse Midwives Clinical Specialists How Does it Work? Based on the Driver s License Compact (DLC) A nurse residing in a Compact state is issued a multistate license State where practice occurs enforces practice standards and Regulation 4
5 Why Aren t More States in the NLC? To join, each state must enact model legislation Advocates work to introduce legislation; not always include the Board Opposition: some nurse unions Misconceptions about the compact: costs, information exchange, enforcement and board authority Future of Healthcare Traditional face to face plus Practice via telecommunication (telehealth nursing) Remote patient monitoring Threat of National Licensure Federal Government Facing Rising Cost of Health Care Increasing demand Limited Resources Solution: We Can Do It! and Regulation 5
6 Kathy Thomas Maintain State Based What is NCSBN Doing? Executive Directors of Boards of Nursing assembled to reconsider regulation that best supports cross-border practice Commissioned three working groups: Compact Revision, Legislative Strategy, Fiscal Impact Convened a Special Delegate Assembly on May 4, 2015 The NCSBN Initiative Members agreed to revise the compact language to address concerns about public protection Decided to align the provisions of the NLC and APRN Compact Determine implementation strategies What is Different? Criminal background checks are now required for all compact states Felony convictions are a bar to a compact license Various provisions to improve the operations of the Compact NCSBN commits to fund ongoing operations of the compacts and assist states with grants for implementation expenses and Regulation 6
7 Kathy Thomas Maintain State Based The Effect Removed the primary barriers for most states to adopt the compacts Legislative strategies and tactics to assist states in adoption Progress toward goal: adoption by all states Making Nationwide Licensure Portability a Reality Political: Boards of Nursing, State Nurses Associations and State Legislators Goal: Adoption by at least 26 states before 2018 Stay tuned and Regulation 7
