What determines the issuance of administrative citations against a licensee?

  1. A random selection process

  2. The severity of patient complaints

  3. Decision by the executive officer based on violations

  4. Number of years in practice

The correct answer is: Decision by the executive officer based on violations

The issuance of administrative citations against a licensee is not determined by a random selection process (A) as it would be unfair and illogical to make such an important decision by chance. Patient complaints (B) may be a factor in the decision, but it is not the main determining factor as there may be other factors at play. The number of years in practice (D) may be a consideration but not the sole determinant. The most appropriate answer is C as it states that the executive officer makes the decision based on violations, which is the most logical and fair criterion for determining the issuance of administrative citations against a licensee.
