Advanced practice registered nurses; revise certain provisions related to, including collaboration requirement.

HB 98 modifies Mississippi's nursing law to reduce supervision requirements for advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs). It exempts APRNs from needing a collaborative relationship with a physician after completing 3,600 practice hours, and exempts certified registered nurse anesthetists after 8,000 hours. The bill also updates the Mississippi Board of Nursing to include a certified nurse anesthetist member and adds APRNs to disciplinary action provisions. These changes aim to increase APRNs' independent practice authority while maintaining patient safety standards.
