Medical Administrative Career Ladder, AFSC 906XO.
Abstract
Inventory booklets were administered to Medical Administrative incumbents during the fall of 1979. Responses were received from 2,444 Medical Administrative incumbents (75 percent of the total assigned population). The overall sample was representative and provided a comprehensive picture of the 906XO population. The overall job structure was found to be extremely diverse, with 16 major job groups being identified. These jobs varied greatly. They ranged from routine jobs, such as forms and publications clerk, mail clerk, outpatient records clerk, and information or appointment clerk; to medical squadron section personnel; to more difficult jobs, such as resource management/medical service account personnel, biometric clerk, and health advisor. These 16 major groups broke out into four general job groupings: administration, resource management, patient affairs, and supervision. The jobs performed by 3, 5-, and 7-skill level personnel were primarily technical in nature. Even at the 9-skill level, personnel devoted a third of their time to nonsupervisory functions. Similar trends were noted in the TAFMS analysis. Both the AFR 39-1 Specialty Descriptions and the STS adequately described the range or job functions performed by 906XO personnel. No modifications were suggested.
