  • 1.  PA/NP Supervision of CT/MR Injections

    Posted 09-25-2018 18:28
    Good afternoon, 
    A colleague of mine asked me this question and I didn't know the answer<g class="gr_ gr_508 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation multiReplace" id="508" data-gr-id="508">....</g>Can PA's/NP's supervise injections without an MD present in the building? He has a small independent imaging center that has MD coverage 2.5 days a week but wants to expand to 5 days for contrast studies. All that is available are PA's/NP's. It's located in New York State.
    Thanks very much in advance for your help.
    Mark

    Most likely not.  The MAC will provide the requirements for supervision of contrast but usually NPs and PAs cannot provide this oversight....
