I've been a PA for 30 years both in rural as well as urban settings. I feel we need to remove barriers to the most effective use of PA's. My home state of Nebraska fully removed the need for the supervising physician's name being added to PA prescriptions in 2020 via LB 755. Nebraska more progressive than Virginia?
