FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Section 195.070.3 – Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) without a collaborative
practice arrangement
Officials from the Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) state this proposal
provides full controlled substance authority to Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs)
without a collaborative practice arrangement with a physician.
Currently, when a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists applies for certification through the
Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (BNDD), they are required to submit information
regarding their collaborating physician. The system will not issue without that data completed.
BNDD will need to have ITSD amend the current database to allow Certified Registered Nurse
Anesthetists 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
Total General Revenue Expenditures
$28,350
Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect the
estimated ITSD provided by DHSS to the General Revenue Fund in the fiscal note.
Officials from the Department of Commerce and Insurance and the Department of Social
Services
Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero
impact in the fiscal note for these agencies.
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. L.R. No. 3540S.01I

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 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.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not
require additional capital improvements or rental space. L.R. No. 3540S.01I
