●● Medical professional (including a health educator, registered dietitian, nutrition professional, or other licensed practitioner), or a team
of medical professionals who are directly supervised by a physician (doctor of medicine or osteopathy)Direct supervision requires that the physician be present in the office, so the answer would be yes, for an RN to perform this service, the supervising physician would need to be in the clinic.
