Health insurance exchanges: A call for nursing action.
State health insurance exchanges will provide the opportunity for consumers to have options regarding health insurance coverage. Nurses have a vital role to play in the implementation of exchanges. Knowing the basic facts about how these exchanges will work, what the benefits will be, and access to reliable information sources will enable nurses to provide trusted guidance. The development of this new insurance marketplace is also an opportunity to address the long-standing barriers to advance practice registered nurses (APRN) practice.
