Bill would let trained nurse practitioners use fluoroscopy with radiographers

Nurse practitioners could use fluoroscopy to guide procedures and perform duties they are authorized to carry out. This covers fluoroscopy used for procedural guidance and the nurse practitioner's authorized duties. The nurse practitioner must complete education and training approved jointly by the state department and board. The training must follow rules adopted under section 71-3508.

Medical radiographers could use fluoroscopy under a nurse practitioner's direction or in collaboration with one. This applies to licensed medical radiographers working with nurse practitioners.
