The Commission for Nurse Reimbursement aims to modernize the reimbursement structure for nursing services.
The Commission for Nursing Reimbursement was launched in response to nationwide concerns about nursing staffing shortages. It will work to change the way that Medicare reimburses healthcare systems for the valuable care that nurses provide.
The Commission aims to evaluate, review, and recommend improvements to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services on how to allow for payment for nursing services in hospitals and other healthcare settings.
The Commission will work alongside nursing organizations and partner with healthcare groups across the nation to propose a solution to Congress that takes into account the needs of the more than 5 million nurses in America today and seeks to reduce the high cost of quality healthcare. We will secure bi-partisan support to improve the sustainability and stability of the nursing workforce.
The Commission for Nurse Reimbursement (CNR) was founded in April 2023 by Rebecca Love and Sharon Pearce with a clear mission: to transform how nursing care is valued and reimbursed. Our goal is to address the critical financial challenges that have contributed to the nursing shortage and, ultimately, improve patient care.
We believe that nurses are the backbone of the healthcare system and that their invaluable contributions should be recognized financially. By advocating for nursing care to be viewed as a billable service rather than an expense, we aim to elevate the profession and ensure its sustainability for the future.
The Commission is a diverse coalition of passionate individuals dedicated to making a difference in healthcare:
We believe in collaboration and are committed to working with legislators, policymakers, and healthcare stakeholders across the political spectrum. Nursing is a bipartisan issue, and we are confident that by uniting our efforts, we can achieve meaningful reform.
Nurses are present in every congressional district across the country, and their voices deserve to be heard. We will leverage this grassroots power to advocate for policies that support nurses and improve patient care.
We run on volunteers! They help us increase awareness and initiate grassroots movements. Our volunteers work on Committees with a specific focus, which means you can find the one that resonates most with your interests, talents, and gifts.
