Abstract
Advanced Practice Providers (APP; nurse practitioners and physician assistants) are becoming a larger proportion of the providers in urology environments. As the role of the APP continues to evolve, there will be a need for APPs to offer additional procedure-based services to urology patients. This chapter offers insight into the skills and process of common office-based procedures but is not inclusive of all procedures that an APP license may allow for those working to the highest level of their education and training. An APP’s ability to offer these procedures will be the result of a variety of factors that include state licensing, facility credentialing, and facility or practice need for the service.
