There are various capacities under which advanced practice nurses serve. For instance, in the front line to manage disasters. Additionally, they also participate in health promotion. Tactics that APNS can use to push for pay equality will help understand them better. These nurses should provide high-quality care using low costs.

Effective tactics for APN to position themselves on Matters to do with Equal Pay

Advanced practice nurses should ensure that they a reimbursement for all the services. A transparent bill is used to represent various nurse practitioners and thus, it is a good method. Another tactic that nurse practitioners should use is the ability to work independently. They should do so through the removal of the board of registration in the nursing consult where an agreement is reached with the board of registration (Pickard, 2014). Equal pay rates should be used. Besides, there should be the use of capitalization methods and this will make practitioners be motivated on the need to engage themselves in the proper utilization of nurse practitioners.

How Nurse Practitioners should Position themselves: Is it Provision of High Quality Care at Low-Cost or Provision of the same services at the Same Pay?

Advanced practice nurses should position themselves such that they can provide high-quality care using low costs. Due to the reduction in the cost of health care, healthcare is made accessible. To meet low cost, there should be the minimization of regulations that lead to high healthcare costs (Pickard, 2014). The nurses should be allowed to define their scope of practice fully and legally so that they can offer better care.
