What does it mean in English, please?

You guessed right. You may still need the input of an attorney or a field professional.

Oh, and HC practitioner doesn't have to be a "doctor" with an MD or whatever it is they call it around here.
Even a nurse fits the description "appropriately licensed healthcare practitioner"

Thanks, MoEl

But I still cannot get into the logical part of it - how can it be that a doctor/nurse/whatever-related-to-medical-treatment is engaged into selling medical devices?

Is that normal? Isn't he/she supposed to use the medical device to treat patients?

I have no attorney or field professional to consult on this...

Unless the appropriately lincensed healthcare practitioner not necesserily be a "practising medical person" but rather smb who got more or less medical education. Can it be so?

It relates more to the way the things are in the US (as this was written there), rather than to the language itself, I assume.

I'll send you a PM

You know, it could also be that even a healthcare practitioner still needs to acquire a special license to sell or buy that equipment.
As I said, it depends on what else that contract or policy states.

No. He/she must be "practicing" and not just medically educated. Now the concept of "practice" itself varies unless defined elsewhere.

the law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of an appropriately licensed healthcare practitioner.

Does it mean that the healthcare practitioner only can sell or order the device?

It's the manufacturer's disclaimer, and is not legally binding in any way.

It means that for example, if you take your eye out while using the device, then it's a bit more difficult to get any compensation for your missing eye.
