Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) issued a news release announcing that she signed Executive Order No. 13, temporarily extending the State of Emergency declared pursuant to Gov. Phil Murphy’s (D) COVID-era Executive Order No. 103 for an additional 45 days. This will allow nurse practitioners and physician assistants more time to enter into delegation agreements with physicians so they can continue to prescribe medications. The State of Emergency, previously set to expire at 5:00 pm on February 16, will now expire at 5:00 pm on April 2.
