   Frank About Health - The Barriers Still Holding Back Nurse Practitioners

   In the conclusion of this 2 part review of the Nurse Practitioner profession and the ongoing call to action for State Level Support, we provide the clarity of how important Nurse Practitioners are in the Health Profession regardless of the outcome of how the profession is supported, funded and advocated.Despite decades of growth and proven patient outcomes, practice authority still depends on geography. Why do some states grant full autonomy while others require physician oversight? How do administrative barriers, workforce shortages, and rural healthcare gaps affect access to care? This episode offers a balanced, insightful look at the policy, workforce, and patient-access realities shaping the future of healthcare in America and what it means for you.National Nurse Practitioner Entrepreneur Network www.nnpen.orgNP Directory www.npdirectory.orgNNPEN Facebook page www.facebook.com/nnpenetwork

   Frank About Health - Nurse Practitioners Need a Seat at the Table

   In this episode of Frank About Health, Frank R. Harrison is joined by nurse practitioner leader and entrepreneur Lynn Rapsilber, alongside healthcare strategist and coach Phyllis Quinlan, for a timely conversation about why one of the most essential healthcare workers in America is still struggling to practice, lead, and thrive. While nurse practitioners are trusted providers on the front lines of chronic disease management and community care, the discussion reveals how regulatory barriers, lack of business training, and outdated reimbursement models continue to limit their impact and restrict patient access in the process.Together, Frank, Lynn, and Phyllis unpack the real-world consequences of scope-of-practice restrictions, rising educational debt, and monopolized control over coding and reimbursement by institutions such as the American Medical Association. Phyllis brings a broader systems and leadership lens to the conversation, helping frame these challenges within a larger transformation of healthcare delivery and previewing an upcoming Frank About Health mini-series focused on the Nurse Practitioner Experience. The episode moves beyond critique to spotlight collaboration, collective advocacy, and practical pathways for elevating nurse practitioner voices—making it essential listening for clinicians, healthcare leaders, policymakers, and anyone invested in building a more sustainable, patient-centered healthcare system.Lynn Rapsilber:Website: www.nnpen.org/Lynn-RapsilberConsulting Page: www.npbusinessconsultants.info/about-lynn.htmlLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/dr-lynn-rapsilber-dnp-anp-bc-faanp-b6238114/Phyllis Quinlan: Website: mfwconsultants.com/LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/phyllisquinlancoachspeaker/Instagram: www.instagram.com/phyllisquinlanofficial/?hl=en

   Frank About Health - Introducing Health-E-Media

   In this episode of Frank About Health, the conversation goes beyond individual projects to explore a larger question: how do we build trust, visibility, and momentum for health advocacy in a time of disruption, misinformation, and burnout? Frank and Anshar unpack the creation of Health E Media as a response to a fractured health media landscape where meaningful voices often struggle to be heard. Together, they explore how storytelling, credibility, and lived experience can be curated into a media ecosystem that amplifies real impact rather than noise.Listeners will hear how books, documentaries, podcasts, live events, and patient-led movements can work together to drive awareness and advocacy—highlighting spring initiatives, cultural moments, and innovation that already resonate with real audiences. The episode offers insight into why media trust matters as much as innovation itself, and how thoughtful platforms can support emerging ideas, patient empowerment, and systemic change without rushing to sell solutions. This is a thoughtful, forward-looking conversation for anyone interested in health advocacy, media with purpose, and what it takes to move important conversations from the margins into the mainstream.This episode is ideal for anyone interested in health advocacy, patient empowerment, media with purpose, and how thoughtful storytelling can shape the future of healthcare.Anshar SeraphimLinkedIN: www.linkedin.com/in/anshar-seraphim-516120159/Linqapp: linqapp.com/anshar_seraphimYouTube: www.youtube.com/@AnsharSeraphim
