Answer:

<h3>What is supervision in medicine?</h3>

When an individual is not licensed to administer medical services, medical supervision means that the individual's exercise of delegation to deliver medical services is regularly coordinated, directed, and inspected by a physician.

The BCaBA accreditation is the most widely recognized assistant behavior analyst credential, and many funders and licensing boards require it. The BACB, which has been certifying behavior analysts for over 20 years, offers the BCaBA certification.

If you stay on pace, your BCBA supervision will take 1.5–2 years, and your BCaBA supervision will take a little less time. Students pursuing certification can earn up to 130 hours of experience and 6.5 hours of supervision (or time with a supervisor) per month (5 percent ).

In the experiments conducted by Avery, McCarty, and MacLeod, which hypothetical result would indicate that protein, not nucleic
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Only the extracts from heat-killed cells treated with RNase are unable to transform nonvirulent bacteria into virulent bacteria.

Explanation:

The experiment by Avery, McCarty and MacLeod aimed to identify Griffith's "transforming principle," which is a principle that explains how transformation is a way of recombining, exchanging, or transferring genetic information between organisms or from one organism to another. For this, they used cell that were heat inactivated and purified the transforming principle of these cells.

The purified cells did not give positive results in the tests done by the scientists, but they presented transformants very similar to the DNA. However, Avery suspected that the result should be reinterpreted and that the molecule was not a DNA. This is because RNA degrading enzymes had no effect on the transforming principle and only RNase-treated heat-killed cell extracts are unable to transform non-virulent bacteria into virulent bacteria.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Medicare Advantage (MA) plans are privately planned healthcare offered by contracting with Medicare to provide Part A and Part B health benefits to patients. MA part A plan covers hospital insurance and MA Part B plan covers medical insurance. Most of the MA plans also covers prescription drugs and most of the Medicare services are covered. Common MA plans include Health Maintenance organization (HMO) plans, Preferred provider Organization (PPO) plans, private fee-for-service (PFFS) plans, and Special Needs Plan (SNPs).  

Explanation:

Mrs. Davenport is already enrolled in a MA plan before she has developed ESRD. Therefore, her plan will continue after getting the ESRD diagnosis and the MA plan chosen by Mrs. Davenporrt cannot charge more than the original Medicare cost for dialysis and coverage of immunosuppressant drugs. Moreover both part A and part B medicare plans have annual budget for out-of-pocket costs thus the increasing healthcare cost of Mrs. Davenport after the ESRD diagnosis can be covered through renewal of annual budgeting. Moreover, if the previous Medicare advantage plan is not functional in the service area, then Mrs. Davenport could enroll in Special Enrollment period and may get another Medicare advantage plan in their area.
