Conyers, GA Physician fined $10k for Illegally being HIRED by APRN to supervise
Georgia
All APRNs in Georgia should know it is currently illegal in GA for an APRN to hire a MD to supervise them. Here is a link to the details of the case that occurred in Conyers, GA detailed in last month's Georgia Composite Board Report (See detail on case of
Vitaliy Gavrikov MD, who was fined $10,000 and placed on 2 yrs probation) . Some MDs and APRNs are working around this current law, but might be on thin ice legally. https://medicalboard.georgia.gov/sites/medicalboard.georgia.gov/files/2017-11-Public%20Board%20Actions%20List.pdf
