An applicant holds an unrestricted full medical license in another state, completed approved graduate medical education, has no license restriction, adverse peer-review action, or pending investigation, and has practiced actively for three years after residency. The applicant is ABMS-certified and now needs a sixth attempt on one licensing-examination part. What is the best conclusion?
Correct answer: B - A sixth attempt on that one part may qualify
A direct-care physician is due for the two-hour pain-management and opioid-prescribing requirement this renewal cycle. The physician reports 30 formal credits and 20 informal credits; the formal total includes a two-hour accredited pain-and-opioid course that also qualifies as medical ethics. No separate ethics course was taken. How should the submission be evaluated?
Correct answer: B - Compliant; qualifying hours may satisfy both requirements
A patient properly requests a record set that actually consists of 25 paper pages and 100 electronic pages. The records will be picked up; no affidavit or narrative is requested. The patient also owes $900 for prior care. Which response complies with Texas rules?
Correct answer: D - Release within 15 days and charge no more than $52.50
A 17-year-old lives with both parents, works part time, and asks to consent alone to elective nonemergency surgery. No other statutory consent exception applies. May the adolescent authorize the operation?
Correct answer: C - No; this route also requires separate living and self-managed finances
An outpatient with an acute ankle fracture has no cancer, chronic pain, hospice, palliative-care, end-of-life, or substance-use-treatment exception. A physician plans a new Schedule II opioid, one tablet every six hours as needed, and last checked the prescription monitoring program six weeks ago. Which prescription plan complies with Texas law?
Correct answer: C - 32 tablets, no refill, after a new PMP query
A Texas-licensed physician evaluates a stable localized rash in a patient located in Texas. Clear store-and-forward images, a detailed history and medication list, verified identity and location, consent, and follow-up access are all available. Which approach is permissible?
Correct answer: D - Proceed asynchronously if it meets the same standard of care
A certified, nonexempt pain-management clinic issues listed controlled-substance prescriptions to 62% of its patients each month. The physician owner-operator is on site for 40% of operating hours and reviews 28% of patient records; all patient-care personnel complete 10 pain-management hours every two years. Which finding requires correction?
Correct answer: C - Record review is deficient because the minimum is 33%
A physician develops reasonable cause to believe that a child has been abused. A resident files an internal safety report, and a social worker says she will notify the state later. Which action satisfies the physician's own Texas duty?
Correct answer: A - Report personally now; the 48-hour duty is nondelegable
EMS finds a valid Texas out-of-hospital DNR for a patient in cardiopulmonary arrest. Which care plan honors the order?
Correct answer: A - Withhold resuscitation and continue comfort-focused care
For a standard-of-care complaint, TMB sends written notice of an Informal Settlement Conference 52 calendar days before the conference. The physician submits rebuttal material 11 business days before it. Which statement is accurate?
