Relates to supervision by certain nurse practitioners; makes certain provisions permanent relating to nurse practitioners

This bill makes permanent key provisions allowing nurse practitioners to diagnose illnesses and provide treatment within their specialty areas, working collaboratively with licensed physicians or other nurse practitioners. It requires written practice agreements and protocols for this collaboration, including specific rules for resolving disagreements about diagnosis or treatment. The law directly affects nurse practitioners and physicians who collaborate with them, ensuring consistent practice standards without temporary expiration. This updates prior temporary rules (set to expire in 2026) by making them permanent under New York's education law.
