“The purpose of this article is to provide you with an objective response to the perception that anesthesiologists and CRNAs are the same, and hence, in staffing models they can be substituted without consequence. We will show how this belief of equivalency is just like an optical illusion…On first glance, one sees one thing, but with deeper examination and understanding, one sees reality.”
