Massachusetts S2938 aims to ensure equitable reimbursement for certified registered nurse anesthetists and physicians.

Massachusetts S2938 seeks to promote increased access to patient care by ensuring equitable reimbursement for certified registered nurse anesthetists and physicians. The bill amends various sections of the General Laws to prohibit distinctions in participation, coverage, and payment between physicians and certified registered nurse anesthetists authorized to practice in advanced roles. It mandates that reimbursement for services provided by certified registered nurse anesthetists be at least equal to that for physicians, provided they are acting within their scope of practice.
