Participants in the study included students enrolled as juniors and seniors in a baccalaureate nursing program.

Stark Voluntary Self-Referral Disclosure Protocol (Srdp) And Stark Law, Kip Klingman
Kip Klingman
When you’ve made a serious mistake, sometimes it is best to step forward and confess before the government regulators find out on their own.
