What does a Medical Director do?
The Medical Director’s job description can vary from clinical oversight and supervision of a clinic for emergency procedures and protocols. As well as legally requiring part of the partnership between their professional corporation and the management services organization that operates the practice when required in certain states.
The Medical Director’s responsibilities include availability for response to emergency situations, and satisfying any training requirements for the scope of practices in all types of businesses from medical offices, urgent care centers, med spas, mobile practices, patient homes, and via telemedicine. Often the Medical Director requirements vary from state to state. The recommendation is that both parties have experienced legal counsel involved in the creation of the management services agreement (MSA).

What is a Medical Director?
A Medical Director partners with healthcare providers to offer required clinical oversight, meeting legal and proximity requirements for practice operation. Physicians can own a professional corporation to meet ownership requirements in CPOM states.
Most states allow remote Medical Directors. Additionally, non-CPOM states do not require physicians to own medical practice businesses. Thus, eliminating the need to form additional corporations to maintain compliance.
