State practice and licensure laws permit all NPs to evaluate patients; diagnose, order and interpret diagnostic tests; and initiate and manage treatments, including prescribing medications and controlled substances, under the exclusive licensure authority of the state board of nursing. This is the model recommended by the National Academy of Medicine, formerly called the Institute of Medicine, and the National Council of State Boards of Nursing.
Reduced Practice
State practice and licensure laws reduce the ability of NPs to engage in at least one element of NP practice. State law requires a career-long regulated collaborative agreement with another health provider in order for the NP to provide patient care, or it limits the setting of one or more elements of NP practice.
Restricted Practice

The 2008 civics practice test is a study tool to help you test your knowledge of U.S. history and government. Use this online tool in English to prepare for the civics portion of the naturalization test. The civics practice test is also available in Spanish, but please note that the actual test is in English.
The actual civics test is NOT a multiple choice test. During the naturalization interview, a USCIS officer will ask you up to 10 questions from the list of 100 questions in English. You must answer correctly 6 of the 10 questions to pass the civics test.
Certain applicants, because of their age and time as a lawful permanent resident, are exempt from the English requirements for naturalization and may take the civics test in the language of their choice. For more information, see our Exceptions and Accommodations page.
On the naturalization test, some answers may change because of elections or appointments. As you study for the test, make sure that you know the most current answers to the questions. Answer these questions with the name of the official who is serving at the time of your eligibility interview with USCIS. The USCIS officer will not accept an incorrect answer.
The instructions and content in this practice civics test are not intended to provide legal advice or guarantee that you will pass the civics test during your naturalization interview. If you have any questions, visit the Find Help in Your Community page.
Social work practice consists of the professional application of social work values, principles, and techniques to one or more of the following ends: helping people obtain tangible services; counseling and psychotherapy with individuals, families, and groups; helping communities or groups provide or improve social and health services; and participating in legislative processes.
The practice of social work requires knowledge of human development and behavior; of social, economic, and cultural institutions; and of the interaction of all these factors.
The American Association of Colleges of Nursing and The Arnold P. Gold Foundation jointly created this new award to celebrate and recognize the impact of interprofessional collaboration between nurses and physicians that has fostered humanism in healthcare. We define humanism in healthcare as collaborative, compassionate and scientifically excellent care that places the interests, values and dignity of all people at the core of every healthcare interaction.
Earlier this year, leaders and member representatives from the American Organization for Nursing Leadership (AONL) and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) held a series of conversations to build a better understanding of the challenges facing nurses in practice and academia as well as opportunities for collaboration. With discussion centered on workforce supply, faculty shortages, and budget constraints, challenges shared among nurse leaders across settings include:
Preparing practice-ready nurses to thrive across all healthcare settings is a top priority for academic nursing. Sweeping changes in healthcare delivery, including new models of care delivery, emerging technology, and health system restructuring call for a new approach to how nurses are educated and transitioned into the workforce. The transformational work can only be achieved through close collaboration among nurses in academia and practice
AACN's report titled Advancing Healthcare Transformation: A New Era for Academic Nursing addresses how baccalaureate and higher degree schools of nursing can amplify their role in improving health and health care at the local, state, and national levels.

These 10 guiding principles are intended to lay the foundation for developing Good Machine Learning Practice that addresses the unique nature of these products. They will also help cultivate future growth in this rapidly progressing field.
The 10 guiding principles identify areas where the International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF), international standards organizations, and other collaborative bodies could work to advance GMLP. Areas of collaboration include research, creating educational tools and resources, international harmonization, and consensus standards, which may help inform regulatory policies and regulatory guidelines.
As the AI/ML medical device field evolves, so too must GMLP best practice and consensus standards. Strong partnerships with our international public health partners will be crucial if we are to empower stakeholders to advance responsible innovations in this area. Thus, we expect this initial collaborative work can inform our broader international engagements, including with the IMDRF.
We welcome your continued feedback through the public docket (FDA-2019-N-1185) at Regulations.gov, and we look forward to engaging with you on these efforts. The Digital Health Center of Excellence is spearheading this work for the FDA. Contact us directly at

This report (PDF) provides a detailed examination of how physicians were compensated by their practices between 2012 and 2022. The data show that the percentage of physicians paid by a combination of two or more methods increased from 48.2% in 2012 to 61.0% in 2022 due to the increase in the percentage of physicians who received more than half their compensation from salary combined with at least one other method, namely bonus. During this 10-year period, salary remained the dominant method used to compensate physicians. Personal productivity increasingly factored into the compensation of most physicians, although it was increasingly being used in combination with other methods and less likely to be the main component of physician compensation. The report also examines differences across physician employment status, physician specialty and practice ownership.
