Pioneering Health Care Proposal from Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania Gov. Rendell has proposed innovative health care legislation dubbed a "Prescription for Pennsylvania" that would enable non-physicians to provide basic medical services, like recording medical histories and giving routine physical exams. Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners would be included in all provider networks and could be selected as primary care physicians. Midwives could prescribe drugs. Dental hygienists could provide dental services independent of dentists in schools or clinics.
