2021 NNPBC Membership
Effective renewal year 2021, responsibility for CNPS professional liability (PLP) has been transferred to NNPBC.
What does this mean for me?
- RNs, RPNs, NPs and employed students will continue to pay for CNPS Professional Liability Protection (PLP) during their initial registration or registration renewal.
- At the time of renewal, RNs, RPNs, NPs and employed students have two options for their PLP:
- Select the preferential group rate as part of a bundle that includes your required CNPS fee along with NNPBC membership for a cost of $109.20 (RNs/RPs), $236.04 (NPs) and $86.10 (ESNs).
- Select the CNPS only option for for a cost of $164.86 (RNs/RPs), $375.38 (NPs) and $164.85 (ESNs).
- In order to align with the BCCNM registration year, NNPBC will be offering its membership for a 13-month period at a cost of 12 months.
- This transition does not impact LPNs and non-practicing nurses, LPNs and non-practising nurses will be provided with the opportunity to choose to purchase NNPBC membership during their BCCNM renewal or can do this at a later time via the NNPBC website.
