    Area of Science:

    • Health Economics
    • Nursing Workforce Management

    Background:

    • Advanced practice nurses (APNs) are crucial healthcare providers.
    • Underutilization of APNs represents a potential economic inefficiency.
    • Quantifying this underutilization is essential for resource optimization.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a model for estimating the economic costs associated with the underutilization of advanced practice nurses.
    • To provide a framework for healthcare organizations to assess the financial implications of suboptimal APN deployment.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a cost-estimation model.
    • Identification of key variables and data requirements for model implementation.
    • Inclusion of illustrative examples to demonstrate model application.
