FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Section 334.104.13 – Advance Practice Registered Nurses
Officials from the Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) state this proposal 
allows advanced practice registered nurses who have been in a collaborative practice 
arrangement for a cumulative 2,000-documented hours with a collaborating physician and whose 
license is in good standing to be exempt from entering into or remaining in a collaborative 
arrangement in order to practice in the state.
Currently, when an advanced practice registered nurse applies for certification through the 
Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (BNDD), they are required to submit the name and 
license number of their collaborating physician. The system will not issue without that data 
completed. BNDD will need to have ITSD amend the current database to allow nurse 
practitioners to be “exempted” and not be required to complete that information. The estimated 
cost is $28,350.
IT Consultants – one-time costs in FY 2028
• Requirements Gathering = 25 hours at a rate of $105 = $2,625
• Analysis = 20 hours at a rate of $105 = $2,100
• Design = 40 hours at a rate of $105 = $4,200
• Development = 125 hours at a rate of $105 = $13,125
• Test = 20 hours at a rate of $105 = $2,100
• Implementation = 20 hours at a rate of $105 = $2,100
• Project Management = 20 hours at a rate of $105 = $2,100
• On-going Support = None required
• Section Total IT Consultants = 270 hours at a rate of $105 = $28,350

Rule Promulgation
Officials from the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules assume this proposal is not 
anticipated to cause a fiscal impact beyond its current appropriation. 
Officials from the Office of the Secretary of State (SOS) note many bills considered by the 
General Assembly include provisions allowing or requiring agencies to submit rules and 
regulations to implement the act. The SOS is provided with core funding to handle a certain 
amount of normal activity resulting from each year's legislative session. The fiscal impact for 
this fiscal note to the SOS for Administrative Rules is less than $5,000. The SOS recognizes that 
this is a small amount and does not expect that additional funding would be required to meet 
these costs. However, the SOS also recognizes that many such bills may be passed by the 
General Assembly in a given year and that collectively the costs may be in excess of what the 
office can sustain with its core budget. Therefore, the SOS reserves the right to request funding 
for the cost of supporting administrative rules requirements should the need arise based on a 
review of the finally approved bills signed by the governor.

FISCAL DESCRIPTION
This act modifies provisions relating to the practice of advanced practice nursing. Under current 
law, collaborative practice arrangements between physicians and registered professional nurses 
may delegate to an advanced practice registered nurses ("APRNs") the authority to administer,  L.R. No. 3517S.01I 
Bill No. SB 809

dispense, or prescribe certain controlled substances. This act provides that the section of law 
providing for such agreements shall not apply to APRNs, excluding certified registered nurse 
anesthetists ("CRNAs"), who have been in a collaborative practice arrangement for a cumulative 
of 2000 documented hours with a collaborating physician and whose license is in good standing. 
APRNs applying for licensure by endorsement may demonstrate to the Missouri State Board of 
Nursing completion of such hours. Additionally, any such APRN shall not be required to enter 
into or remain in such arrangement to practice in this state.
This act further modifies the definition of "practice of advanced practice nursing" by providing 
that in addition to the practice of professional nursing and within the advanced practice 
registered nurse role and population focus, the term shall include certain actions and measures.
This act also provides that an APRN's prescriptive authority shall include authority to prescribe, 
dispense, and administer controlled substances as provided in current law. Furthermore, the 
provision on prescriptive authority shall also apply to good-standing APRNs who have been in 
collaborative practice arrangements for a cumulative of 2,000 documented hours with 
collaborating physicians and who are no longer required to hold collaborative practice 
arrangements.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not 
require additional capital improvements or rental space.
