MSHC and UIC FMR: Administration and Governance • Complicated administrative structure - Director reports to hospital administration and FQHC Board - Medical Director reports to Director (no MD) - MSHC faculty reports to Medical Director for ambulatory, to Chief of Service (DFM Head for hospital care), to DFM Head for academics - Residents report to PD who reports to DFM Head • Complicated communications, often dysfunctional • Sensitive relationships: Head is advisory, if/when asked
