Why can't you get an LoR from the doctors that supervised you in your 6 months of USCE?

ok sorry still kinda confusing.
But if these doctors are licensed in the US, for the purpose of the match you can say your LoRs are from American doctors.
How come your USCE was not hands on through?

Ok first, did that physician have hospital privileges? did you get a chance to round with him at the hospital? That counts as hands on.
I am sure iowa can help you with a % probability of matching

ok you know what if you really got to round at a teaching hospital. My advice is try to market it as USCE WITH HANDS ON. I really see no reason for downplaying your USCE unless you disagree.
As long as he mentions in the LoR that you were at so and so hospital and mentions some of your duties and responsibilities it should be fine.
