    Abstract:
    A bill for Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) Prescriptive Authority was introduced into the Michigan state legislature in 1996, and again in 1997. The legislation would add registered professional nurses with specialty certification to the list of health practitioners granted independent prescribing rights. Currently, licensed dentists, medical doctors, osteopathic doctors, podiatrists, certified optometrists and veterinarians comprise the list of prescribers.
