So I'm really delighted to have my colleague with me here today, Dr. Alex Hoyt. He can perhaps introduce himself when it is his turn to go.  \nBut we received this funding from NCSBN in the middle of the pandemic. So grateful for their funding. I was a co-PI with Dr. Jennifer Perloff, who is at Brandeis University. And we also worked with a student at Boston College. And Dr.  \nPerloff also has an appointment at the Institute for Accountable Care. So we're able to really take advantage of their rich, rich data source, which you'll hear about in a minute. So I'm hesitant to say that home-based primary care is an emerging innovation, because we all know that house calls and being seen in the home really has been around for centuries.  \nBut sometime in the 1800s, the American Hospital Association became powerful, and suddenly care shifted more conventionally into offices and into hospitals. But now it seems like receiving care in the home and not in an office space setting is making a resurgence. So home-based primary care visits billed to Medicare between 2012 to 2019, so pre-pandemic, increased by 42% .  \nSome of this is really driven by the aging population. There's just a growing population that is really home-bound, where it's cumbersome for them to seek care in the office. And we also know that they've been receiving more primary care in skilled nursing facilities, and in assisted living facilities where primary care providers have been going to those facilities, which is really driving a lot of this growth.  \nBut there's also this expansion of this dedicated workforce. And nurse practitioners seem to be really driving a lot of this increase in volume. You can see here the comparison between physician decline in visits, that top line, the dark gray, and that slight increase or a stable line is nurse practitioners, the blue line on the bottom.  \nAnd this is COVID, right, where care really dipped pretty low. So it's not surprising that that blue line is plateauing, it's pretty stable. But physician visits really decreased at about 35% between 2017 and 2021. And NPs increased by 10% .  \n- [Dr. Hoyt] Thank you. I'm Alex Hoyt. Monica's colleague. Like Monica, I have my Ph.D. in social policy from Brandeis University. I'm now at the School of Nursing at the MGH Institute of Health Professions. And I do work for a research focused on APRNs.  \nThanks for having me here today. So if you are a nursing regulator whose mission is to protect the public from substandard nursing practice, you can be heartened by a large and growing literature showing the safety and quality of nurse practitioner care.  \nHowever, the population of folks receiving home-based primary care is older, and frailer, and sicker than the general population of older adults. And the home environment is not structured as a healthcare setting.  \nAnd finally, most nurse practitioner students don't get a clinical experience doing home care, or advanced practice home care, which has a unique combination of primary care, and sometimes acute care, and sometimes morphing into palliative care.  \nRight? So the conundrum for regulators is that regulation can have a protective effect for a vulnerable population.
