SB 332 requires the Tennessee Board of Nursing to develop a survey for nurse practitioners who hold a certificate of fitness, collecting specific information from them. The board must then submit a report on the survey results to legislative committees. This bill amends multiple health care-related sections of Tennessee law (including Titles 4, 8, 14, and 68) to establish this data collection and reporting process. It directly affects nurse practitioners who complete the survey and the Board of Nursing, which is responsible for implementing the requirement.
