The letter urges CMS to rely on fact-based resources on the education and training of nonphysician health care professionals, on the overall impact of the cost and quality of care, and on the true impact of state scope of practice laws on access to care across the USA. CMS is also cautioned against positioning scope of practice as an administrative burden, a separate issue facing physicians and other healthcare professionals.
