Which of the following health care stakeholders mandates licensing and/or certification of certain health care practitioners?

A. federal government
B. state government
C. training institutions
D. professional associations
E. insurance companies

B. state government

Each state's medical practice acts mandate licensing and/or certification for certain health care practitioners; therefore, the state government is the stakeholder involved in licensing and certification. Any training institution that prepares health care practitioners to administer health care has a huge stake in the health care system, and also influences the system proportionately according to the quality and quantity of the practitioners they prepare. Professional associations and other industry organizations establish and monitor health care practitioner ethics, and offer advice and support for members of their diverse groups.
