The pivotal role of nurses in health care reform is increasingly recognized, especially regarding efforts to promote public health, reduce costs, and advocate for policy changes. Nurses serve as frontline advocates in areas such as COVID-19 vaccination mandates, telemedicine, and prescription drug pricing. Their involvement is grounded in their direct patient interactions, clinical expertise, and understanding of health disparities. Nurses have been instrumental in promoting COVID vaccination by educating hesitant populations, dispelling myths, and advocating for policies that increase vaccine accessibility (Haxhihalili et al., 2021). For instance, during the pandemic, nurses actively participated in vaccination campaigns, emphasizing public health and safety. In telemedicine, nurses act as case managers and health coaches, guiding patients through digital platforms, ensuring follow-up, and advocating for policies that support telehealth reimbursement and equitable access (Gajarawala & Pelkowski, 2021). Their advocacy in this realm ensures that telehealth expands while maintaining quality and affordability. Regarding prescription drug pricing, nurses leverage their knowledge of medication management to lobby for transparent pricing policies and better access to affordable medications. For example, nurse-led initiatives have successfully pushed for legislation to cap out-of-pocket costs for essential drugs (Fudin & Kest, 2020). These roles exemplify how nurses serve as advocates who influence healthcare policy and reform, ultimately fostering healthier communities and more sustainable healthcare systems. Their continuous advocacy is essential for aligning healthcare delivery with public health goals, reducing unnecessary expenses, and ensuring equitable access to care.
