AMEND 18VAC85-85-160-51 B.1 TO INCLUDE NCCT
 

I would greatly appreciate if you could amend to include NCCT.  We learn the same exact material as those who are credentialed under NBSTSA. Every O.R in VA and across the nation is experiencing a shortage in staff, surgical techs included. I feel like this would greatly impact our already small numbers and most definitely be a hindrance to our patient population. Thank you for your time and consideration in the matter.
