Proposal to amend the pharmaceutical schedule rules to support prescribing rights for Registered Nurse Prescribers and Nurse Practitioners.
The proposal can be found here: Pharmac Consultation - Nurse Presribers
In particular we are interested in whether the proposed change to the section on specialist prescribing will address the issues faced by Nurse Practitioners.
Feedback due: Please send feedback to jillc@nzno.org.nz by 2 August 2016.
