District of Columbia
✅ Full Practice Authority
DC grants full practice authority to CRNAs — the 2024 Health Occupations Revision General Amendment Act removed APRN collaboration requirements — and opted out of the federal CMS supervision requirement in September 2026. Both CRNAs and CAAs are authorized to practice.
