Hospital medical director. Documenting roles and responsibilities.
Establishing the position of medical director for a hospital entails making a clear exposition of the role of the medical director in relation to the board, the basic administrative structure, and the medical staff. The responsibilities assigned to the medical director in one hospital may differ in more than a minimal manner from those in another institution, and the nature of these relationships may also vary because hospitals differ in their traditions, internal power relationships, and functions. Because of these differences, the need to be precise about roles and responsibilities becomes even more obvious.
