      • It is based upon recognized standards of the health care specialty involved, and
      • It represents the most appropriate level of care: the frequency of services, the duration of services, and the site of services, depending on the seriousness of the condition being treated (such as in the hospital or in the physician's office), and
      • It is not experimental or investigational.”
