“Effective competition is at the core of America’s economy…staff urged several states to reject or narrow restrictions that curtail competition among healthcare providers and professionals because they limit patients’ access to health care and raise prices…Elimination of physician supervision and delegation requirements appears to be precompetitive.”
Federal Trade Commission-Office of Policy Planning, Bureau of Economics, and Bureau of Competition.

Issue
In Illinois APNs are not allowed to legally open a business to practice nursing in a community.
Currently there are no restrictions in physician-ARPN collaborative agreement that require the APRN to work at the same practice as the collaborating physician
Illinois rural communities and elder population are in need of more health care services and access areas
