Which credential is not recognized as a physician for RMV 7D eligibility?

• A. MD
• B. DO
• C. Chiropractor
• D. Advanced Practice Nurse

Answer: (C)

The key idea is which medical credentials RMV accepts as “physician” for 7D eligibility. RMV recognizes MD (Doctor of Medicine) and DO (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine) as physicians, and an Advanced Practice Nurse (nurse practitioner) who is licensed and authorized to practice medicine is also treated as physician-credentialed for this purpose. A chiropractor, while a licensed health professional, is not considered a physician for RMV 7D eligibility because chiropractic practice is a separate discipline and does not confer the physician credential RMV uses. So the credential not recognized as a physician for 7D eligibility is the chiropractor.
