As a nurse leader, I hope to educate other nurses on the impact policy can have on our work. I think many nurses are unaware of how we may influence policy to help ourselves and our patients. There is power in numbers! M7 @pcjefa #N545rn

Although not required, ambulatory surgery centers may participate in quality surveys to gauge comparative standing in the market. Many ASCs are still using Medicare fee for service billing. US Dpt HHS has drafted a VBP plan to be used in ASCs in the future. M6 #N545rn @pcjefa

The US Dpt of HHS reports that women today may use birth control for more than 1/3 of their lives. By passing policy to #freethepill we are eliminating one of the barriers women have to obtaining contraception. Affordability is Access Act outlines the plan. @pcjefa M4 #N545rn

kff.org/womens-health-…. The #AffordableCareAct is a complex and controversial healthcare policy. Over time, we are seeing challenges and changes in regards to the ACA’s effect on birth control coverage for women. #N545rn @pcjefa @Carrie03110 M2

In #N545rn I am eager to learn more about the governmental/political component of healthcare policy creation and how these are implemented for use at the bedside. I want to better understand rationale for different policies and procedures that I use in my workplace every day.
