2 Miss. Code. R. 601-1.1
These rules apply to all individuals licensed to practice medicine or osteopathic medicine in the state of Mississippi. Because discipline may be imposed for failure to meet the standard of practice in connection with collaborative agreement with any advanced practice registered nurse (APRN), the Board of Medical Licensure has determined that it is reasonable, necessary and in the public interest to adopt the following rules detailing what it considers to be the standard of practice. These rules are to inform and educate physicians in collaborative relationships as to what the Board of Medical Licensure considers to be the responsibilities of such physicians. These rules intend to be practical and flexible enough to address a variety of situations and specialties. The Board of Medical Licensure does not intend to restrict patient access to essential healthcare in the state of Mississippi.
