Education and Training: Regular training sessions on ethics and legal standards can help nurses understand the importance of maintaining integrity in their practice. Vigilant Supervision: Healthcare facilities should implement strict supervisory practices to monitor documentation and billing processes. Robust Reporting Mechanisms: Encouraging a culture of transparency where nurses can report suspicious activities without fear of retribution is crucial.
