    When we look at Munchausen by proxy, 46% of the perpetrators are in the healthcare field. This is the biggest red flag that I would like to give all of you is that this particular disorder is extremely lethal, and people are attracted to the health professions when they have this disorder. Some people are just doing it for attention. The euthanasia is a rationalization. We haven't found a single victim who said, "Oh, yeah, I wanted to be put out of my misery." And then there's just psychopathy, power, and control. Orville Lynn Majors in Indiana. You know, he absolutely would go after the whining and complaining patients.

    So I know you touched on this quite a bit during your presentation, but we have a question about are we monitoring the exam to see if, in fact, candidates are doing better? Are there things we need to do to make it more challenging? - [Joe] Sure. Yeah, we monitor the exam every day. So we're paying attention and running statistics every day. And we publish to the website, the NCSBN website, two different reports. So at the end of each quarter, we'll summarize the results from that previous quarter.

    And you know, thinking back, Montana has now passed a compact twice in what, five years. So you know there's a lot of support for the compact. So that is great and from what we can tell, we don't anticipate that to move. And then quickly to touch on some of the other health care compacts because they are growing as well, the medical compact currently has 28 states and 1 territory with 7 states with pending bills. Important to note though, that the medical compact still does not have every state participating in it. These are just bills that have been enacted.

    The decision to offer paid or unpaid positions to students is solely that of the health care facility and is based on the resources available. Many un- paid partnerships have been very successful and pro- vide more opportunities for students to participate.17 Practice–academic partnerships also shouldn’t be limited to large medical centers or medical–surgical units.
