Sharon Reynolds, MAAPPN Board member, recently checked with DPH and the Fact Sheet that came out in January was not accurate in that all APRNS and PAs are supposed to be automatically enrolled this year (not just NPs and PAs). As they are having a difficult time implementing the change, it won’t be happening until May renewal dates. We don’t have to wait to enroll in the PMP program but once enrolled we are expected to comply with “first time” user checks.
