What Can a Nurse Practitioner Do in Colorado?
Colorado is a full practice authority (FPA) state for nurse practitioners. This is great news for you as a patient, because it removes unnecessary administrative barriers and allows us to deliver direct, efficient care.
In Colorado, an experienced, fully licensed Nurse Practitioner operates as an independent healthcare provider. This means at Dala Health, we can:
- Operate an Independent Practice: We can legally own and run our own clinical practice to serve you directly.
- Act as Your Provider: We can manage your overall health, manage specialist referrals, and coordinate your long-term medical care.
- Prescribe Independently: We have full prescriptive authority to manage your medications without requiring a physician's co-signature.
