Medical Director (MD or DO): EMS Administrative Oversight

Position Overview

CLF Consultants LLC seeks a credentialed Medical Director (MD or DO) to provide administrative oversight of Emergency Medical Services protocols and operations at two US Army occupational health clinics in Utah: Tooele Army Depot and Dugway Proving Ground. This is an administrative oversight role, not a direct patient care or ambulance staffing position. The Medical Director provides EMS protocol governance, ambulance run review, response time analysis, and quality improvement recommendations on a federally disciplined reporting cadence.

This is an ideal role for a Utah-licensed physician seeking a high-impact, part-time federal medical director engagement without routine clinical shift coverage. The role supports the William Beaumont Army Medical Center, Fort Bliss, Texas, anchor for southwestern installation occupational health services.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide technical support and guidance for establishing and updating EMS protocols at both installations, applying current ACEP (American College of Emergency Physicians) Practice Parameters, NAEMSP (National Association of EMS Physicians) standards, and applicable Army Medical Command directives
• Conduct annual evaluations of existing EMS protocols against federal, state of Utah, and DoD/Army Medical Command standards
• Conduct quarterly reviews of all ambulance runs and records of service calls, including response-time performance, clinical appropriateness, protocol adherence, documentation completeness, and outlier-call analysis
• Analyze monthly emergency response time reports against ACEP and NFPA 1710 standards where applicable
• Execute random audits of emergency medical care documentation on at least a quarterly cadence
• Provide written recommendations on local EMS quality improvement on Government request
• Deliver findings on a 30-calendar-day cadence with annual reports during December and quarterly reports distributed to the Contracting Officer (KO), Contracting Officer Representative (COR), Director of Occupational Health Services, and the EMS Coordinator at Dugway Proving Ground

Required Qualifications

• Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathy (DO) from an accredited college or university
• Current Utah medical license (or eligibility to obtain prior to contract start)
• 5+ years post-residency clinical experience
• Active malpractice/professional liability coverage (E&O minimum $1M/occurrence)
• US Citizenship and ability to obtain Common Access Card (CAC) for installation access
• Willingness to travel between Tooele Army Depot and Dugway Proving Ground

Preferred Qualifications

• Board certification in Family Medicine, Emergency Medicine, or Occupational Medicine
• EMS oversight experience or occupational medicine practice background
• Prior military medical experience or familiarity with Army Medical Command operations
• Experience with EMS protocol review under ACEP, NAEMSP, ACS, or equivalent professional standards
• HIPAA and federal Privacy Act compliance experience
• Familiarity with Patient Care Report (PCR) audit methodology

Schedule and Travel

This role averages approximately 400 hours annually, with workload typically structured around the quarterly review cycle. Expect approximately 1-2 days per month on-site at each installation plus quarterly review and annual evaluation time. Tooele Army Depot is located approximately 35 miles southwest of Salt Lake City; Dugway Proving Ground is approximately 85 miles southwest of Salt Lake City. Travel between installations is reimbursed separately from hourly compensation, per federal travel guidelines (mileage, lodging if required, and per diem where applicable).

Compensation and Engagement

Pay rate: $185 to $210 per hour, paid as 1099 independent contractor. Travel is reimbursed separately and does not reduce hourly compensation.

Term: Multi-year engagement aligned with the underlying federal contract (base period plus option years).

Coverage: Independent contractors are responsible for their own health insurance, professional liability insurance, and tax withholding. CLFC provides administrative support, contract liaison, and a backup MD/DO on call to cover PTO, illness, or licensure-transition events.
