An Open Letter

To: Sen. Walker, Gov. McMaster, Rep. Bauer

From: A verified voter in Columbia, SC

February 5

I’m writing to ask that you oppose s.44 and s.45, granting full practice authority to Advanced Practice Providers. While crucial members of the healthcare team, PAs and NPs lack the rigorous training required to practice without oversight. The training of medical doctors, whether it be the granular detail of medical school or the immersion of residency, provides a foundation for independent practice that cannot be replicated. This bill would lead to delays in diagnosis, over-teatment, and inappropriate care in general. In addition, it allow hospital systems to pocket additional revenue at the expense of patient safety and the integrity of the doctor-patient relationship. Please oppose these bills.
