Such individual providers of health care shall be judged in such cases in comparison with similarly trained and qualified providers of the same class in the same community, taking into account his or her training, experience, and fields of medical specialization, if any.

The fact that a health care practitioner has met or failed to meet any such criteria, guideline, standard or other metric shall not be admissible or considered by a finder of fact in any proceeding or other action concerning a determination of liability of a health care practitioner to a patient or other party seeking damages on account of an injury to a patient or in any proceeding or other action of a state licensing or regulatory authority imposing professional discipline for failure of a health care practitioner to meet the applicable standard of care.
