"an expansion of nurse practitioners' practices might need to be considered,"

Excuse me, I have no idea what that means.

Are they considering making nurses doctors?

Probably plumbers and code inspectors and real estate salesmen too.

I mean pass out M.D.s then claim there really isn't a doctor shortage.

A nurse practitioner is similar to a Physician’s Assistant; they both work under the direct supervision of a physician. Giving a NP an expansion of practices probably means that the NP would work solo.
