Thanks to @CAgovernor, we can finally #CloseTheProviderGap! Now that #SB1451 passed, Californians will have improved access to high-quality care as intended by law.

According to @commonwealthfnd, accessing primary care is more difficult than access to surgery or physical therapy. NPs can #CloseTheProviderGap and care for patients like 25 y/o Ella, who is having difficulties finding primary care for her strep throat. wb.md/3XRXIYi

Studies show that allowing #NPs to practice independently increases care for underserved populations without compromising quality. #CloseTheProviderGap

Only half of California’s primary care needs were met in 2023, making the state’s primary care shortage the largest in the nation. 20 states have already eased physician oversight requirements, here’s why we should be next. #CloseTheProviderGap

Californians throughout the state are struggling with delays in care that are often related to too few providers. We agree that it’s time we use every team member. #CloseTheProviderGap

CANP and @ClosetheProvGap-supported SB 1451 (Ashby), which includes language to facilitate the implementation of AB 890 so California NPs can expand access to care, was just passed by #CALeg Senate Business, Professions & Economic Development Committee!

Americans are increasingly turning to non-physician providers due to a nationwide shortage. Meanwhile, the number of NPs has tripled, and the number of PAs has doubled.

Thank you for hosting a fantastic conversation! We appreciated the shout out to #NPs and community health centers! Nurse practitioners are essential to primary care teams and to #CloseTheProviderGap, especially in CA.
We had a terrific discussion today on the @KFF Health Wonk Shop about the primary care shortage and what can be done about it.
We've been talking about these issues for a long time, but there are some new twists.

California has a dire shortage of mental health providers. A one-year online program helps people become certified as Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners — PMHNPs — from their own communities.
