Can a Dentist be a Medical Director?

Can a Dentist be a Medical Director?

The medical director, and again, just because a doctor has to own 51% of the medical practice doesn’t mean that doctor has to act as the medical director. The vast majority of times, yes, they do because they don’t have to do a whole lot and it beats finding someone and paying them separately, but you don’t have to be the medical director if you’re the owner, but you do have to be an MD to own a medical practice.

If you get a doctor who’s a 51% owner or a doctor who is the full-owner, say in the state of New York, or if it’s a corporate practice at medicine state, that allows anybody to own it, and you just go and hire a medical director, the medical director has to be trained in the procedures that are being performed.

You just have to make sure that the medical director has at least enough training in the particular procedures that the nurse will be performing in the clinic.
