Nurse practitioners already meet most of the necessary criteria to become medical practitioners and the most amusing aspect of the medical care practitioners (MCPs) debate is about the job title. The key issue is for patients to understand that MCPs are not proper doctors but can treat them safely, but some nurse practitioners tempted by the MCPs higher salary and status might ditch their current job.
