Send us a textOne of the ongoing discussions people in the health space (I'll include everyone in that; Doctors, Physios, Dieticians, Nutritionists, Personal trainers etc) keep having is about "scope of practice".For instance; Someone who is not a registered dietician can not give out personalised meal plans, telling you exactly what to eat. It doesn't matter whether they're a personal trainer or a GP, they don't have the qualifications to do so.You will often hear physio therapists say the same thing; "If your client has an injury then you should refer out to a physio" and technically they are correct.However, there are some grey areas in this. What about a minor niggle? Can/should a personal trainer refer out? I mean, you don't go to A&E with a small cut on your finger, do you?And what happens when a qualified professional is seemingly incapable of helping you but someone in an adjacent profession does have the solution?I give the example of my knee pain which physiotherapists kept messing around with and nothing was resolved, then I saw my sports massage therapist and he diagnosed the cause in 2 minutes and fixed it within 3 sessions. Should I not have listened? Should he have sent me away, back to the physios that didn't have the solution the first time?All that, and more, in today's episode;As always; HPNB still only has 5 billing cycles.

On September 17, 2024, the Texas Senate Health and Human Services Committee held an interim hearing on scope of practice expansion for nurse practitioners and other clinicians. In this third episode related to that hearing, Texas Medical Association (TMA) president Ray Callas MD discusses the importance of physician oversight for nonphysician practitioners and answers questions from legislators.Importantly, Dr. Callas notes that in the past, TMA was asked by legislators to 'come to the table' to collaborate with nurse practitioners and to loosen supervision as a compromise to independent practice. But complying with this request is now being used as rationale for removing oversight completely, with legislators arguing, "Well, if you don't need to be on site / can supervise multiple NPs, then are you even necessary?" Learn more! https://www.amazon.com/Imposter-Doctors-Patients-at-Risk/dp/1627344438/Support our vision of physician-led care and truth and transparency for all medical practitioners: physiciansforpatientprotection.orgPhysiciansForPatientProtection.orgPhysiciansForPatientProtection.org

In the final AMA Update episode of 2024, American Medical Association CXO Todd Unger looks back on another year of stories about the work that physicians are doing across the country and how the AMA is fighting to support them.

Navigating the complex and often underemphasized requirements of professional standards, legal considerations, and insurance can be challenging for sports nutrition practitioners and personal trainers. Many professionals, especially early in their careers, may overlook or minimize these responsibilities, focusing primarily on the practical and enjoyable aspects of helping clients achieve their goals. However, staying informed and adhering to these standards is not only essential for providing ethical, competent service but is also crucial for minimizing liability. Ignoring or misinterpreting scope-of-practice guidelines and insurance limitations can leave well-meaning professionals exposed to significant legal and financial risks that could have lasting consequences on their careers. In this episode, Alex Thomas joins Danny Lennon and Eric Helms to discuss the essential, if often overlooked, responsibilities that define a successful and resilient career in sports nutrition. Together, they explore best practices for insurance, scope of practice, and the importance of aligning with professional organizations that provide educational and legal support.

 In the last episode, you heard some of my testimony at the Texas Interim Legislature hearing on Scope of Practice. Today you're going to hear from a nurse practitioner, Holly Jeffries, who is practicing in rural Texas.Her testimony was particularly impactful and really quite persuasive to legislators. I think it's important to understand the NP point of view and also learn the concerns of legislators by listening to their line of questioning.Referenced in the podcast:Facts about NP primary care numbers (HRSA shows much fewer doing primary care than AANP represents): https://youtu.be/AqyUdQZ-9fYSupervising physicians sued without ever seeing or being consulted on a patient: https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/990494?form=fpfhttps://youtu.be/GlfPSnHgC1Ahttps://www.jucm.com/supervising-doctors-may-be-held-liable-in-malpractice-suits/https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/acep/106708Increasing rates of malpractice and adverse reports for NPs: https://youtu.be/EOeGhR2uUSUPhysiciansForPatientProtection.org

Which of the following is most accurate about nurse practitioner's scope of practice?A. The organization that grants NP certification dictates a profession scope of practice.B. The employer is able to require the NP to provide services that are beyond what regulatory bodies outline.C. The law of the state where the NP practices provides regulatory guidance on scope of practice.D. Federal law advises on NP scope of practice.Visit fhea.com to learn more!

On September 17, 2024, the Texas Senate Health and Human Services Committee held an interim hearing on scope of practice expansion for nurse practitioners and other clinicians.

In this Iron Culture/Sports Nutrition Association/Sigma Nutrition Radio crossover episode, host Eric Helms is joined by co-host Danny Lennon and guest Alex Thomas. Alex is the president of the Sports Nutrition Association who started this association years ago when he was rudely awakened to the fact that he couldn't provide nutrition advice in his personal training clinic, despite having done so for years, having an RD on staff, and getting a degree in exercise science and nutrition. This prompted him to do a deep dive into scope of practice, insurance, legal requirements to provide nutrition coaching, and eventually to realise just how large of a gap there is in the nutrition coaching industry. Becoming aware of how common coach negligence leading to poorer consumer health is, spurred him to create the Sports Nutrition Association. Now SNA seeks to elevate the profession of nutrition coaching and protect the public. In this episode we navigate the confusing world of scope of practice, both legally and from a liability perspective, and why it's not only an important box ticking exercise, but a fundamental part of serving your clients.

In this conversation, Dr. Jeff Michaels discusses the importance of scope of practice and the role of the State Government Relations Committee (SGRC) in advancing optometry. He emphasizes the need for optometrists to build relationships with legislators and educate them about the profession. Dr. Michaels also addresses the issue of subsectioning within the optometry profession and the importance of unity. He highlights the growing awareness among new graduates about scope of practice and the need for continued advocacy. The conversation concludes with a reminder that relationships and education are key to achieving legislative success. Takeaways: Building relationships with legislators is crucial for advancing scope of practice. The optometry profession needs unity and collaboration to overcome subsectioning. New graduates are increasingly aware of the importance of scope of practice. Misleading arguments from ophthalmology must be countered with accurate information. Education and relationship-building should start years in advance of legislative efforts.

If you're already coaching client nutrition, how's it going? Are your clients compliant? Seeing results? Are you digging in beyond weight and even muscle and body fat for results? Are you lab testing? Do you know how to suggest and to read a lab and adjust coaching based on that?  If any of those questions gave you reason to pause, this is an episode you want to tune into. Juggling the scope of practice with the leverage you have due to the sheer fact you spend more time with a client than their physician does, is a reality. We talk today about that elephant in the room. What's in scope, what's out, how genetics matter and labs reflect lifestyle.  What if your training in other areas of fitness, wellness and sports as a Menopause Fitness Specialist or other niche, is missing a crucial component preventing the breakthroughs you are looking for with your clients?  My Guest: Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo, the founder of the Institute of Nutritional Endocrinology, is passionately committed to transforming our current broken disease-focused system into a true health care system where every practitioner is skilled at finding the root cause of health challenges and uses the wisdom of nature combined with modern scientific research to restore balance. Dr. Ritamarie, a licensed Doctor of Chiropractic with Certifications in Acupuncture, Nutrition, Herbal Medicine, and HeartMath®, specializes in insulin, thyroid, and adrenal, and digestive imbalances. She's also a master at using palate-pleasing, whole fresh food as medicine, and is a best-selling author, speaker, and internationally recognized nutrition and functional health authority with over 30 years of clinical experience. Her podcast, Reinvent Healthcare, provides health and wellness practitioners around the globe to be part of the movement to provide root-cause care to people in need. Questions We Answer in this Episode: Let's first define nutrition endocrinology and how you got started  How are fitness & health pros shortchanged in certifications about how to coach people about diet? The one-size-fits-all approach doesn't work, but scope-of-practice makes fitness pros and health coaches nervous. How can health & fitness pros bridge the gap within their scope of practice when working with clients?  Lab testing and interpretation combined with genetics is something listeners likely have a broad range in experience doing, to just beginning to understand they can actually be front lines in identifying their own and clients source of obstacles/success. For those not yet proficient or confident in their ability to support a client in this way, can you give them insight into how it can be a game-changer for their business and ability to support clients?  This is my favorite topic for fitness & health pros, we've just done an entire new series on working with women in perimenopause, postmenopause and the menopause transition for coaches, I'd love to hear you discuss how hormones play a role in not only optimal fitness but nutrition programs for clients? You've been educating fitness & health practitioners for (how long?) You've seen not only a huge impact on your consumers, but likely on the businesses of the professionals you serve. Do you have any examples of how life-changing having these skills is for health & fitness pros?  Questions on coaching client nutrition? Messages from your business, liability insurance provider, or certification agency may give you reason to pause.

Scope of practice expansions that allow nonphysician providers to practice independently cost large health systems millions each year, two health care data studies show.

American Medical Association CXO Todd Unger hosts.

The controversies began before the official opening of the 2023 AVMA Convention in Denver. One debate that resurfaced this year was expanding the scope of practice, review of licensed veterinary technicians' roles, and their permitted professional duties. Despite having no regulatory or enforcement abilities, the AVMA proclaimed it would pledge “to defend against expanding the scope of practice,” particularly in the role of a proposed midlevel practitioner. Unfortunately, the discussions quickly grew to include debates about preventing any establishment of a VCPR by a licensed veterinary technician, going against legislation passed in several states. Viewfinders, we've got a lot to talk about in this episode. Hosts Dr. Ernie Ward and President-elect of the National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America (NAVTA), Beckie Mossor, RVT, discuss the recent controversies around expanding the scope of practice and the duties a licensed veterinary technician can perform and how this potentially impacts both the veterinary profession and access to pet care. Viewfinders, this is a critical issue that impacts veterinarians, vet techs, and all members of the veterinary profession.
