Children's Health fires over 24 pediatricians because it "operates under a business model that relies more heavily on nurse practitioners." Renames the business "MD Kids Pediatrics" #StopScopeCreep

"I feel stupid" That is when this NP should probably have realized she was in over her head. Go back to bedside nursing where you can make a difference and not kill patients. #MedTwitter

Leave NP education to nurses? They have proven they can't education anyone, let alone treat patients without oversight. #MedTwitter

A 3% physician reimbursement cut by CMS, coupled with sky high inflation, results in an effective 10-15% salary reduction in 2023. Healthcare heroes? Anyone?

A gentle reminder, nurses and nurse practitioners are indeed midlevels, as they do not have close to the same skills as MD/DO If you instead use "provider," please stop using it. The impact of not using it hurts patients and contributes more to scope creep. #MedTwitter

Primary care delivered by NPs and PAs is more expensive than care delivered by physicians, one health system's data revealed. So they found a solution that works better for patients. #StopScopeCreep spr.ly/6010zvg1I

disagree strongly. Get off your high horse and realize that independent practice is a joke and not something they are trained for. Giving them independent practice is not advancing care and is killing patients.

Spoken like a true elite. I am not donating my measly salary to charity, my patient care and working for peanuts is a donation in itself

Liar, liar, pants on fire: #PMHNP student edition midlevel.wtf/liar-liar-pant… This story from an NP Facebook group provides a glimpse into the types of scum being accepted into NP schools these days. #NursePractitioner #Psychiatry #MedSchoolMatters #StopScopeCreep #MedTwitter

Friend of mine is negotiating for aesthetic surgery services. He was told they could get an NP or PA for 5% less. That means NPs and PAs are putting themselves out there as MD replacements and against scope of practice laws. Who trained these “midlevels” trying to do medicine.

R.Block,MD @BarbieSiesta A doctor title lends legitimacy? And those Leadership “Residency” hours allows them to be ready and effective on day 1.

Stony Brook’s curriculum for Nurse Practitioner…Your future doctor will provide medical treatment without a single course in medicine. 💰🤫

If you feel disrespected by being called an "assistant" (your job title is literally #PhysicianAssistant), then maybe you should've gone to medical school and completed residency instead of taking the shortcut that is PA school. #StopScopeCreep #MedSchoolMatters #MedTwitter
