To examine the variety of roles filled by psychiatrists functioning as medical directors in community settings, a survey of all members of the American Association of Community Psychiatrists was undertaken. A total of 168 respondents classified themselves as agency medical directors or program medical directors. Medical directors also classified their breadth of supervisory responsibility as including medical staff only, medical and other clinical staff, or all staff (including administrative staff). A classification scheme of six types of medical director positions based on level of operation and breadth of supervisory responsibility was created. This classification helps clarify the medical director's role, providing guidance to psychiatrists and agencies negotiating job descriptions for this position.
为了研究在社区环境中担任医疗主任的精神科医生所扮演的各种角色，我们对美国社区精神科医生协会的所有成员进行了一项调查。共有168名受访者将自己归类为机构医疗主任或项目医疗主任。医疗主任还将他们的监督职责范围分类为仅包括医务人员、医疗和其他临床人员或所有人员（包括行政人员）。基于运营水平和监督职责范围创建了一个六种类型的医疗主任职位分类方案。这种分类有助于明确医疗主任的角色，为精神科医生和机构在协商该职位的工作描述时提供指导。
