Abstract

Advanced practice providers (APPs) are qualified medically licensed health care providers, including nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), nurse anesthetists, certified nurse-midwives, and clinical nurse specialists, who can function either independently or alongside a physician in population-centered care models, disease management integration, care coordination, or in the provision of direct patient care. They also can improve revenue and reduce physician burnout. The use of APPs in the practice of neurology is still in its infancy, and many neurologists are not sure how to integrate an APP in their practice. This article addresses some concerns related to integrating an APP in the inpatient and outpatient settings.
