• Physician assistant
• Nurse practitioner
• Clinical nurse specialist
• Medical professional (including a health educator, a registered dietitian, nutrition professional, or other licensed practitioner) or a team of such medical professionals working under the direct supervision of a physician (doctor of medicine or osteopathy)
