Prescriptive authority in Washington includes all of the following EXCEPT:

  1. Naturopath

  2. Pharmacist

  3. Ophthalmologist

  4. Midwife

The correct answer is: Ophthalmologist

Prescriptive authority in Washington includes four healthcare professions naturopaths, pharmacists, midwives, and ophthalmologists. Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who specialize in eye care and have extensive education and training in the field of medicine. While they can diagnose and prescribe medications for eye conditions, they do not have prescriptive authority in Washington for general medical conditions. This is because they are not primary care providers and do not have the same level of training and education as naturopaths, pharmacists, and midwives in diagnosing and treating general medical conditions. Therefore, option C is incorrect in this context.
