A commentary written by AANP president Dr. Ken Miller and - TopicsExpress



          

A commentary written by AANP president Dr. Ken Miller and immediate past president Dr. Angela Golden was published in the June 2014 issue of Families, Systems, & Health. Drs. Golden and Miller relied on a long history of high-quality holistic health care provided by nurse practitioners to affirm faith in the ability of NPs to lead medical homes. Regarding the integration of behavioral health and primary care, Drs. Golden and Miller stated that, “Although the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) has long supported such integration, we do not support the physician-centric joint principles included in the current issue of Annals of Family Medicine (annfammed.org/content/12/2/183.2.full.pdf)… as they create provider and leadership roles that are too narrow and restrictive for the provision of health care in the 21st century.” Read the commentary at apa.org/pubs/journals/features/fsh-0000046.pdf
