About this listen
Before the 2026 legislative session starts, Dr. Oran Smith presents a deep dive into one of South Carolina’s most pressing challenges: access to affordable, high-quality healthcare—especially in rural communities.
Using national comparisons, workforce statistics, and regulatory insights, his briefing walks listeners through the current scope-of-practice debate surrounding advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) and physician assistants (PAs), the reforms being considered, and what other states are doing differently.
Other topics include transparency in medical billing, portable benefits, physician non-compete agreements, and more. This is a can’t-miss episode for lawmakers and citizens alike who care about the healthcare debates our state is facing.
