How a Medical Director Helps Providers in Tennessee
A medical director in Tennessee gives you:
- Physician oversight and chart reviews
- Delegation protocols that define your scope
- Prescribing authority for NPs and PAs
- Compliance with the Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners
- Legal and malpractice coverage
Tennessee Oversight Compliance Rules
Tennessee requires all healthcare and aesthetic practices to maintain physician oversight in accordance with the Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners (TBME) and Board of Nursing (TBN). Our Franklin medical directors ensure your clinic meets every state regulation and related supervision standards.
Medical Director Requirements in Tennessee
Only Tennessee-licensed MDs or DOs may serve as medical directors or delegate medical services. Delegation is regulated under TCA §63-6-204, which places full legal responsibility on the supervising physician for all delegated medical acts.
Nurse Practitioner (APRN) Collaboration Rules
Tennessee is a reduced practice state, meaning Nurse Practitioners (APRNs) must maintain a written collaboration agreement with a licensed physician. This agreement must define: Scope of services and prescribing authority, Chart review and oversight frequency, Procedures for consultation and emergencies APRNs cannot practice independently without a collaborating physician in place, as required by TCA §63-7-123 and BON Rule 1000-04-.08.
Prescriptive Authority
Under a Collaborative Practice Agreement (CPA), APRNs may prescribe medications approved by their collaborating physician. Controlled substances require DEA registration and compliance with TBME standards. Physician Assistants (PAs) may also prescribe medications under a Supervisory Agreement approved by the Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners Committee on Physician Assistants.
Physician Assistant (PA) Supervision
PAs must operate under a written Supervisory Agreement that clearly defines: Delegated medical acts, Review and consultation protocols, On-site or remote supervision standards
Delegation of Medical Aesthetic Procedures
Procedures like Botox, dermal fillers, laser therapy, and microneedling are considered medical acts in Tennessee. Only physicians may perform or delegate them, and all delegation must be written, signed, and compliant with TBME and TBN rules.
Corporate Practice of Medicine (CPOM)
Tennessee law prohibits non-physicians from owning or controlling medical practices. Medspas must either be physician-owned or structured under a compliant Management Services Organization (MSO) model to separate business operations from clinical oversight.
Telemedicine & Remote Supervision
Physicians may provide supervision through telemedicine, as long as they are accessible for real-time consultation and chart review. Telehealth providers must comply with the Tennessee Telehealth Law (TCA §63-1-155) and document all remote interactions.
Malpractice & Liability Coverage
All physicians, APRNs, and PAs must maintain malpractice insurance that extends to delegated services. Delegation and supervision agreements should also verify that every supervised provider is covered under the clinic’s liability policies.
