In the definitions, an Advanced EMT is listed as a "medic". The scope of practice of an AEMT per the NASEMSD definitions is very similar to our current Enhanced EMT, which is not considered a medic. For instance, the AEMT does not have the ability to use a manual heart monitor, which to me seems one of the defining skills of a medic.
