Found a perfectly placed picnic table today to use as a desk as I collated materials from NHNPA members Looking forward to meeting Senate staffers this afternoon and delivering these important messages. NH’s APRNs see firsthand how access to care through Medicaid leads to engaged and empowered patients, healthier lives, and a stronger, more cost-effective healthcare system - and a healthier NH for all! Did you know that about 13% of Granite Staters are enrolled in Medicaid?

Non-compete clauses are now banned for NH APRNs.
NHNPA flagged the gap, teamed with Sen. Sue Prentiss, hand-delivered letters to every Senator, and flipped a “re-refer” recommendation from the Senate Finance Committee. Both chambers then gave the bill a UNANIMOUS YES, and Gov. Ayotte’s June signature now protects patient access and APRN career mobility.Jun

House Bill 524 would end our state's current system for providing access to vaccines for children. Currently, insurance companies pay into a central fund (run by the NH Vaccine Association), which helps purchase vaccines for all children in the state at a 30 percent discount. Without the NHVA, providers and organizations would have to buy immunizations upfront at full price, administer the vaccine, and then bill insurance companies for reimbursement. Families with private insurance would likely be required to pay for all or some of the vaccines, depending on co-insurance and co-pays.
Please take a couple of minutes to email or call your elected officials. You can find your representative by clicking here. Search for your town, find your representatives, and click on their names in blue to obtain additional information (ie. phone number).
Regardless of the format you choose, make sure to tell the representatives what town you live in! Please consider the time of day if you are making a phone call, as the representatives have provided their personal numbers.
