Collaborative Agreement PA

Specialties NP

Published

Hi!

I started my new FNP position today at a rural FQHC. I will be "shadowing" for about 2 weeks. Problem is that none of the MDs want to sign a collaborative agreement!! The Medical Director is at a conference until next week. My question is...Is there any liability for the MD? It was to my understanding that I would be held responsible for any mishaps??? Help???

Thanks for this information! I finally did get my collaborative agreement signed after I clearly had to spell out each and every detail of what a Nurse Practitioner is and the Pennsylvania laws for NP practice.
