Texas HB3794 regulates advanced practice registered nurses and their payment in government health plans.
Texas HB3794 amends the Occupations Code to redefine "advanced practice registered nurse" and establish rules for their independent practice. It also modifies the Insurance Code to allow health maintenance organizations to consider independent advanced practice registered nurses for network adequacy. The bill requires certain health care services provided by independent advanced practice registered nurses to be reimbursed unless supervised by a physician. It mandates reports on cost savings from these changes and sets effective dates for various provisions.
