it would make it easier to hire us and make us competitive with NPs in this regard, but wouldn't change what we do on a day to day basis very much , except in settings that are currently very restrictive(require doc to see every pt, etc)..
At 2 of my 3 jobs there would be no functional change at all. I already have 0% chart review. my collaborating md of record is a name on a piece of paper somewhere. we never work together and only rarely even see each other at shift change, etc. He treats me exactly like the docs who work the days I am not here.
I'm not saying it would functionally change your position. It would, however, change your profession to finally have what has been already going on for decades acknowledged.
