Contact Your Legislators; Ask Them to Oppose the SAVE Act
The SAVE Act was introduced Tuesday. This will allow Advance Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs), including nurse anesthetists, to practice without physician involvement.
We ask you to email your state Senator and House member TODAY asking them to oppose the SAVE Act. Specifically, request that they do not co-sponsor the legislation. You can find your legislators here.
Talking points to consider including in your emails to legislators:
• I am a physician or PA practicing in…
• The SAVE Act will eliminate physician involvement from patient care.
• The SAVE Act could impact patient safety and increase health care costs.
• Please do not co-sponsor the SAVE Act.
Thank you for your engagement. If you have questions or feedback in the meantime, do not hesitate to reach out to your NCMS team.
