:smack: Apparently so. I don’t watch it, so I assumed it was set in New York, like the original Law & Order.

The answer is less clear under Maryland law. But it seems that Chiropractors are covered there too:

Section 4:301 defines Health Care Provider as “A person who is licensed, certified, or otherwise authorized under the Health Occupations Article or § 13-516 of the Education Article to provide health care in the ordinary course of business or practice of a profession or in an approved education or training program[.]” Chiropractors are licensed under the Health Occupations Article.

Umm, no, all the L&O shows are set in NYC. CSI is the one that has different cities on the different shows.

All of the Law and Order programs are set in New York. The original is just a general-purpose cop show. SVU deals with sex crimes. CI deals with weird stuff like serial killers and the like.

CSI shows are set in three different cities: Las Vegas (the original), Miami (the one with David Caruso), and New York (the one with Gary Sinise).

“Homicide: Life in the Street” was set in Baltimore. There was a great deal of crossover with L&O, and when “Homicide” went off the air, the character of Det. John Munch (Richard Belzer) went over to L&O: SVU, where he is a regular character.
