Which item is NOT listed as required prior to starting the Written Agreement application?

• A. The PA's date of birth
• B. Proof of malpractice insurance
• C. Valid license numbers of the PA, primary supervisor, and substitute supervisor
• D. The primary supervisor and PA must be licensed under the same board

Answer: (B)

This item focuses on what information is required before you can start the Written Agreement application. The form typically needs clear identification and licensure details: the PAs date of birth to uniquely identify the individual, and the valid license numbers for the PA, the primary supervisor, and any substitute supervisor to confirm current licensure and eligibility. It also requires that the primary supervisor and the PA are licensed under the same board, ensuring the supervision arrangement falls under the same regulatory authority and standards.

Proof of malpractice insurance, while important for practice and often handled during credentialing or employer onboarding, is not listed as a prerequisite to begin the Written Agreement application itself.
