Which describes Solo Practitioners?

• A. Solo Practitioners
• B. USMLE
• C. MCAT
• D. Comprehensive Osteopathic Medical Licensing Examination (COMLEX-USA)

Answer: (A)

A solo practitioner is a physician who works independently, running their own practice without partners or a larger group. They make clinical decisions on their own and also handle the business side—scheduling, billing, and compliance—within a single, self-contained practice. The other options are standardized exams (USMLE and COMLEX-USA) or an admissions exam (MCAT), which are about testing knowledge or eligibility, not about describing a type of practitioner. So the choice that describes Solo Practitioners is the term itself.
