The Technical Steward for the PRA segment is PA and Personnel Management.
The PRA segment adds detailed medical practitioner information to the personnel identified by the STF segment. A PRA segment may optionally follow an STF segment. A PRA segment must always have been preceded by a corresponding STF segment. The PRA segment may also be used for staff who work in healthcare who are not practitioners but need to be certified, e.g., "medical records staff."
