The state and federal governments.

They create and enforce healthcare laws (e.g., federal laws like HIPAA, Medicare/Medicaid rules; state laws on licensing, scope of practice, public health). Healthcare organizations, the AMA, and hospital ethics committees can issue policies, guidelines, or standards and can influence law through advocacy, but they do not have legal authority to make binding laws.
