Healthcare Diagnosing or Treating Practitioners, All Other
Healthcare Practitioners and Technical
This is a catch-all for diagnosing and treating practitioners whose work is not listed under a narrower job. In practice that means identifying a condition, writing a treatment plan, watching progress, and changing the plan when it is not working. Other clinicians are brought in as needed, and records have to stay accurate. Keeping up with new methods and accepted practice is part of the job. Suits people who like naming a problem, following a plan over time, and coordinating care with other clinicians.
