Are chiropractors part of the AMA? Or any of the other sources of medical advice I listed?

Pretty weak “regulation” when you can get a “doctor” to prescribe you herbs and spices for your illnesses. Not to mention the tech startups that hand out amphetamine prescriptions written after an online telegealth visit by remote physician assistants and nurse practitioners (see Cerebral and Done).

There might be some regulation to get paid by Medicare and Medicaid services, and some requirements by insurance companies, but that seems entirely reasonable. There is little regulation on who is allowed to give medical advice.
