PA lists neurologist as supervising physician #MedTwitter #StopScopeCreep
Just swell. For the 2nd year, @aanacrna sends 100s of their folks to Cap Hill with no mention of Medicare cuts or big insurance's ongoing attacks on payments for anesthesia services (Change, ASA PS modifiers, NSA). Same old anti-team-based care. CRNAs, your dues at work. 🤦♂️

Physician Assistants have successfully lobbied politicians to rebrand their profession to more easily deceive patients. Oregon will become the first state to permit the title Physician “Associate” Patients deserve informed consent & transparency should come first #StopScopeCreep

GOOD NEWS Oklahoma docs!! On March 29th, OK Governor Kevin Stitt vetoed SB458, the bill that would have given NPs independent practice. Best statement ever...highlighted in red. THEY MADE A CHOICE. Now they want to move the goalposts. Another governor saw the light. Right on.

Internal Medicine residents are having to train NPPs working in cardiology at @wakeforestmed #MedTwitter #StopScopeCreep #NPsLead? reddit.com/r/Residency/co…
This is genuinely how PAs see the medical hierarchy. Consultant. Registrar. Physician associate. "All the other junior doctors". Disrespect +++.
A nurse that graduated with a nursing degree decides to pursue a family nurse practitioner degree less than a year later. The FNP program in question is completely online with only 6 days of in-person sessions. This person can then practice medicine without physician supervision.
Can someone tell me why I’m spending my evenings after work studying for expensive MRCP exams? It seems like having MRCP, or indeed having any formal medical training is completely unnecessary to perform complex procedures like UGIB endoscopy. I feel like a mug
Michigan nurse practitioner bill is full of false promises, bad for patients #MedTwitter #StopScopeCreep #NPsLead? bridgemi.com/guest-commenta…
Oklahoma governor doesn't want NPs prescribing controlled substances w/p physician supervision. So he vetoed a bill that would enable them to do that.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Some politicians get it-that's it's about safety and protection of the public. But many don't.
Kudos to @TakeMedBack @Xrphoebe @pppforpatients for raising awareness of the dangers going on in for-profit medicine #MedTwitter #StopScopeCreep nbcnews.com/health/health-…
The PA Project is out of hand They think this is normal:
No longer just "Physician Associate", they now want to be referred to as an "Assistant Physician" #MedTwitter #StopScopeCreep

Nurse practitioners and registered nurses readily admit that nurse practitioners are not sufficiently competent or qualified to practice medicine. In fact, many of them explicitly state they would not take their family members to midlevel providers. Why do doctors support this?
Just a reminder for those who are unaware. Previous president of the faculty of PA.
A PA boasted about pretending to be a Doctor in a life threatening situation for patient (an actual CRASH call🥺) by wearing a Dr’s lanyard He wasn’t investigated or fined 🙄 He was infact invited to HOL, to AOMRC closed Dr meetings, given voting rights at RCP😡 No consequences!
Physician Assistants have successfully lobbied politicians to rebrand their profession to more easily deceive patients. Oregon will become the first state to permit the title Physician “Associate” Patients deserve informed consent & transparency should come first #StopScopeCreep
Oregon passed a law April 4th that says Physician Assistants can use the title "Physician Associates." However, the Oregon Medical Board must establish new regulations before the PA title is used in a clinical setting. The law takes effect June 6th. medpagetoday.com/special-report…
@NurseChristinNP is not a doctor. Let's be clear. Medical students in their introductory years have a far better grasp over complexity of cases than she ever will be @LeahHoustonMD @Suburbanbella @HalstedMD
Look at this curriculum. This is literally just undergraduate level courses without any formal examinations like the USMLE. Complete charlatanism.
A nurse that graduated with a nursing degree decides to pursue a family nurse practitioner degree less than a year later. The FNP program in question is completely online with only 6 days of in-person sessions. This person can then practice medicine without physician supervision.
Oklahoma governor doesn't want NPs prescribing controlled substances w/p physician supervision. So he vetoed a bill that would enable them to do that.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Some politicians get it-that's it's about safety and protection of the public. But many don't.
@HalstedMD Increased concern with adverse impact on #PatientSafety as #Transparency is eroded with decreased #TruthInAdvertising. Unclear titles are a disservice to patients. Patients deserve to know the education and training of who is providing their care.
The PA Project is out of hand They think this is normal:

There is one theme that I am 100% FED UP with and makes ZERO sense: 🔹We are to accept that scope of practice for PAs is individual 🔹At the same time for doctors it’s a defined path of progression paved with blood, sweat, tears & debt

🧵On Feb. 21, the AMA and 29 medical specialty societies wrote to @depvetaffairs advocating for more physician involvement and transparency in the effort to develop National Standards of Practice (NSP) for 51 health care occupations, referred to as the Federal Supremacy Project.
It’s called medical school. At this point, we should just allow medication to be on the grocery shelves. If these people are relying on Internet resources for the general public, then let’s just cut the middle person and let these people make their own dangerous decisions
Doesn’t this sound ridiculous? Times two?
