If someone has multiple retirement accounts, must the RMD be calculated separately on each account and removed proportionately?

No. An RMD is determined using the Traditional IRA's balance as of December 31 of the preceding year, taking into account all investments within the Traditional IRA. Once determined, the IRA owner generally may remove the RMD from the investment of the IRA owner's choice.
