I thought OBRA was the key legislation, but I vaguely remember the BBA having some role too. Maybe it's both?

I feel like I saw a practice question that mentioned OBRA as the main law for quality standards, but I might be mixing it up with something else.

This seems like a straightforward question about classroom management strategies. I think I can handle this one - maintaining student self-esteem while correcting disruptive behavior is really important.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. Does "prove the effectiveness of controls" mean we're looking for a tool to validate the controls, or one to actually manage the consultancy process? I'll have to re-read it a few times.

Wait, does 'drug-specific criteria' mean the actual usage patterns? Option B seems kinda tempting...

This question seems straightforward - it's asking about who is responsible for overseeing risk management and control processes. I'll carefully read through the answer choices and select the one that best fits the description.

Skilled nursing facilities? More like 'skill-testing' facilities for these exam questions!

I thought the Balanced Budget Act (BBA) of 1997 was the one that established these quality improvement programs. Hmm, let me think this through again.
