English term or phrase: on
What Health Care Providers on Medicare Need to Know About our health plans?

Just need the term of "ON" here. No need to translate medicare. Please list all possibilities. Thank you!

Explanation:
I agree with Ma. Unica's answer, but I guess we could also us the term 'ng' if the word 'on' on the question is equivalent to the word 'of'. I guess 'Health Care Providers' mentioned here are those working/ will be working for Medicare. If this is the case, then I think the right word here is 'ng' (of).
In my sample below, I did not translate anymore the Tagalog words for 'Health Care Providers'.

I've commited a typo for the word 'use'. Don't know how to edit it.

I think this is the safer way to understand "ON", and the original is ambiguous anyway. Thank you all for those involved.

ng, sa


Explanation:
English phrase is a fragment and not a complete sentence. So ng or sa are probable translations, but completing the sentence will help in ascertaining the exact equivalent.
