Medical / Clinic Director Information

A licensed health care clinic may not operate or be maintained without the day-to-day supervision of a single medical or clinic director.  Failure by a clinic to employ a qualified medical director or clinic director constitutes a ground for emergency suspension of the license by the agency.

You must report a change of medical or clinic director to the agency within 21 calendar days from the effective date of the change, as required by s. 408.810 (3)(a), Florida Statutes.
