This study analysed what effects conscious role conflict and conscious self-efficacy have on job satisfaction for hospital coordinators working in medical institutions. In order to study this issue, questionnaires were distributed to 154 hospital coordinators. The results from analysing the effects of role conflict and self-efficacy on job satisfaction are as follows: 1) Role conflict and job satisfaction are negatively correlated. The mean score for hospital coordinators’ role conflict was 2.82, which was lower than average. Among subfactors for role conflict, personal role conflict had a significant effect on job satisfaction, while role ambiguity had no effect on job satisfaction. 2) The mean score for hospital coordinators’ self-efficacy was 3.42, which was slightly higher than average. Other mean scores were as follows: job attitude 3.83, interpersonal skills 3.54, administrative knowledge 3.30, and medical treatment knowledge 3.02. Among subfactors for self-efficacy, job attitude and adminstrative knowledge had significant effects on job satisfaction, while interpersonal skills and medical treatment knowledge had no effect on job satisfaction (p < 0.01). In conclusion various hospital administration techniques, related job training and education needs to be given when introducing a hospital coordinator in order to strengthen the competitiveness of medical institutions. The hospital coordinators need to clearly understand their role so that they can settle into the system at the hospital and develop their job environment.
