Nurse practitioner seen as way to cut health care costs
Connie Sanger a Pennsylvania based nurse practitioner in obstetrics and gynecology argues that expanding nurse practitioner roles can reduce medical expenses by handling routine care. She notes they perform assessments diagnose minor ambulatory issues and prescribe contraception while referring complex cases to physicians. The program requires a 16 week residency and a six month preceptorship and Pennsylvania licenses nurse practitioners in obstetrics and gynecology. Sanger trained at Temple University and UPenn and plans to pursue national certification.
