Understanding your practice authority and capabilities as an NP providing allergy services.
Your ability to independently provide allergy services depends on your state's practice authority laws. In full practice authority states (27+ states), NPs can independently diagnose allergies, perform testing, prescribe immunotherapy, and manage anaphylaxis without physician oversight. In reduced practice states, you'll need a collaborative agreement. In restricted practice states, physician supervision is required. Regardless of your state, allergy training expands your clinical capabilities.
Allergy services create multiple revenue streams from testing, interpretation, and ongoing immunotherapy administration.
In reduced/restricted states, establish collaborative agreements with physicians. Many primary care and allergy practices welcome NPs who can expand their allergy service capacity.
In full practice authority states, NPs can establish independent practices offering comprehensive allergy testing and immunotherapy services.
With 50 million Americans suffering from allergies and a shortage of board-certified allergists, NPs who offer allergy services fill a critical gap. Many patients wait months to see an allergist—you can provide faster access to diagnosis and treatment, improving outcomes and patient satisfaction.
Allergy services integrate naturally into primary care, family practice, and pediatric NP roles. Rather than referring patients out for basic allergy evaluation, you can provide comprehensive care in-house. This improves continuity of care while keeping patients within your practice.
