Can changing scope of practice laws in the United States alleviate the shortage of primary care physicians and stop ever-increasing healthcare spending?
Event Description:
Please join us at Saint Louis University School of Medicine on February 3rd for a discussion on the future of medical practice. We'll be focusing on the scope of practice of advanced practice providers, such as PAs and APRNs, as well as the Missouri's Assistant Physician Bill that allows medical students without residency training to practice medicine under supervision.
