Welcome to allnurses! :balloons:

You will probably have better luck getting an answer if you post this in the International Nursing forum -- that is where the people who know the answers to these kinds of questions "hang out" around here. Most of us "regular" US nurses have no idea how all that stuff works.

Best wishes!
