Framework:

  • Political, educational, economic, and healthcare environmental factors influence APN prescriptive authority.
  • State-to-state regulatory inconsistencies and market reforms create barriers.

Implementation:

  • Strategies include enhancing APNs' political knowledge, educating stakeholders, standardizing pharmacology curricula, and forming coalitions.
