Good afternoon. My name is Jane Doe, and I am representing the Kentucky Advanced Practice Registered Nurse Coalition. I appreciate the opportunity to discuss Kentucky House Bill 286 today, a vital policy that I strongly support. This bill aims to expand the prescribing authority of Nurse Practitioners (NPs) so we can provide more accessible and timely care across our state. Currently, NPs in Kentucky are required to have a collaborative agreement with a physician to prescribe controlled substances, which can delay treatment, especially in rural or underserved areas. H.B. 286 would allow NPs with at least four years of practice to prescribe Schedule II-V controlled substances without a CAPA, aligning our prescribing authority with other healthcare providers and states. This change is smart because it reduces administrative barriers, allowing NPs to respond swiftly to patient needs, particularly for pain management and mental health issues, improving overall health outcomes. It’s emotionally compelling because many Kentuckians face long waits for specialty care, and NPs can fill this gap, ensuring patients receive timely, compassionate care closer to home. Economically, expanding NP prescribing authority can save Kentucky millions by decreasing unnecessary emergency visits and hospitalizations caused by delayed treatment, and by helping to alleviate the provider shortages. Supporting this bill means empowering NPs to deliver comprehensive care, reducing healthcare disparities, and strengthening our healthcare system’s resilience. I urge the legislature to pass H.B. 286 swiftly so we can improve access, quality, and efficiency in Kentucky’s healthcare for everyone. References American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
