Bill overview
The Improving Care and Access to Nurses Act (I CAN Act) aims to expand access to healthcare services by allowing advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs), including nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and certified registered nurse anesthetists, to perform a wider range of Medicare and Medicaid services. Specifically, the bill removes barriers to practice for APRNs by modifying coverage requirements for diabetic shoes, streamlining cardiac rehabilitation programs, and clarifying reimbursement for certain services. It also addresses issues related to home infusion therapy, hospice care, skilled nursing facilities, and Medicaid clinic services, ultimately seeking to improve patient access to care and reduce administrative burdens.
