				physician of a random sample of charts that represent 10% or 20 charts,

				prescribed by the APRN revealed in the chart review. The physician may also
				make review through the Board of Pharmacy Prescription Monitoring
				Program.

				collaborating physician shall meet face to face with the APRN once per quarter
				for the purpose of quality assurance and this meeting should be
				documented.

				for APRNs who work less than 20 hours per week at a clinic shall meet face to
				face with the APRN once per quarter for the purpose of quality assurance and
				this meeting should be documented.

Current through June 25, 2024
In the event of death, disability (physical/mental) or
				  unanticipated relocation of a primary collaborating physician, the secondary
				  collaborating physician shall act as the primary collaborating physician. In
				  the event the APRN has no secondary collaborating physician, the APRN must
				  notify the Mississippi Board of Nursing, which will then immediately notify the
				  Board. In such cases, the APRN may continue to practice for a 90-day grace
				  period while the APRN attempts to secure a primary collaborating physician
				  without such practice being considered the practice of medicine. The Board or
				  its designee, will serve as the APRN's primary collaborating physician with the
				  approval of the Mississippi Board of Nursing. The Board and the Mississippi
				  State Board of Nursing will assist the APRN in their attempt to secure a
				  primary collaborating physician. If a primary collaborating physician has not
				  been secured at the end of the 90-day grace period, an additional 90-day
				  extension may be granted by mutual agreement of the Executive Committee of the
				  Board of Nursing and the Executive Committee of the Board. During this
				  additional 90-day extension, the above described collaborative agreement will
				  continue. The APRN will not be allowed to practice until the previously
				  described collaborative arrangement with the Board is agreed upon. The Quality
				  Assurance process that was in place will be continued by the Board of Medical
				  Licensure during the extension.
