Journal: Nursing & Healthcare International Journal (Vol.2, No. 2)Publication Date: 2018-03-16
Abstract
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) have recently been urged to disallow nurses from analyzing lab tests. This is an interesting issue that has arisen seeing that it is now affecting nurse educators and nurses' view of their scope of practice. During the presidency of Barack Obama, a regulation was enforced that allowed nurses to analyze clinical laboratory tests. Now the CMS is making a request for information on whether personnel requirements need to be updated.
