Expanding Scope of Practice After COVID-19

Vist the conference page to register.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for and importance of health professional practice in the United States. To expand access to health care during the pandemic, many states relaxed or waived scope of practice requirements, calling into question whether these reforms should be made permanent. In this half-day virtual conference, leading experts in law, economics, nursing, medicine, and dentistry will discuss the current gaps in health professional scope of practice, the future of scope of practice reform after COVID-19, and how to rethink scope of practice to better meet community needs and reduce barriers to care.
