A nurse practitioner who opens a clinic faces a question that research rarely settles for her. Who reviews her clinical work, and how often? States answer that question differently, so clinics end up with very different oversight habits. Medspas, infusion centers, and telehealth practices show the gap clearly.
Physicians see this gap in their own referral patterns and chart reviews. Many outpatient clinics now rely on outside physicians for oversight instead of in-house staff.
