Payments should not be based on the physician rate. Payment should be based on the value of services provided and not who provided the services as provided under the state law.

 The idea that nursing practitioners can offer economical healthcare services that physicians has been a long selling idea. After taking a closer look at the idea I can conclude that it is not about the economy of health but the services provided. Value is integral to the provision of service (Cheng, & Fan, 2003).Persson, U., Svensson, J., & Pettersson, B. (2012).
The quality of services provided by nursing practitioners is the same as services provided by physicians. For this reason, Reimbursement for both the nursing practitioners and the physicians should be the same.(Cheng, & Fan, 2003).
