NURSE PROTOCOL ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Dr. Gross presented the Nurse Protocol Report:
The Board took the following actions:
Other Business 1. Does a NP need a supervisor meaning (protocol agreement and 10% of charts signed quarterly) if
the MD is only writing the prescriptions? Yes
If you have an integrated facility, may a medical MD write prescriptions for np psychiatry
patients’ mom or narcotics? Please clarify the question
Does NP need a supervisor to write scripts for non-narcotics drugs? Yes
2. I am a nurse practitioner licensed to practice in your state. Per your law/rule: 10)"Physician"
means a person licensed to practice medicine pursuant to Article 2, Chapter 34 of Title 43; and
(a) Whose principal place of practice is within this state; or (b) Whose principal place of practice
is outside this state but is within 50 miles from the location where the nurse protocol agreement is
being utilized. The Delegating Physician has to be in Georgia or within 50 miles of the
practice location. (Send a copy of the ruling 360-32-01-section 10)
3. I know that the house just passed a bill which allows nurse practitioners to order radiographic
imaging tests without the presence of a life-threatening situation. This bill has not been
finalized.
4. We have had several cancellations due to coronavirus. I feel we will struggle to get the 20 total
procedures in by the 90-day point from the date we turned in the packet. Is there a way to get an
extension of time since we don't know when patients will be able to return to the clinics?
Yes. We will grant an extension please submit your procedures to the board, once you have
the total.
5. I am seeking clarification on trigger point injection in the state of Georgia. Does my collaborating
physician have to be present in the clinic for me to perform trigger point injections? No. Your
collaborating physician does not have to be present in the clinic to perform trigger point
injections.
6. If I have a Med Spa and I will not be prescribing medications, do I have to fill out your protocol
paperwork that’s on the website? Does my medical director have to review 30% of my charts?
Can my medical director be my delegating physician at my Med Spa-or would I need two
different physicians? The Delegating Physician cannot be your employee.
Georgia Composite Medical Board
Minutes of the April 2, 2020 Meeting
14
7. The delegating physician’s name, contact information, and record of the visit must be provided to
the patient’s primary care provider of choice with the patient’s consent within 24 hours of the
visit. Can clients refuse this? What if they don’t have a primary care provider? Does this rule only
apply if there is an allergic reaction or adverse outcome? Also, can an RN inject Botox with a NP
instead of an MD? Refer the question to Georgia Board of Nursing.
8. Why is it necessary for APRN to have protocol agreement if it is NP owned business? It is
required by law.
9. I've been in practice with Molly Tant APRN since 4/2011. I am retiring from clinical medicine
but plan to continue with administrative duties. I am trying to find a sample collaborative
agreement to use as a template for our future association. Referred him to the protocol
template from the Board’s website. Make sure the Delegating Physician’s license does not
lapse and that the APRN’s is not an employee.
