title: The changing role of the primary care practitioner: clinical enterprise management and information technology.
abstract: The Steeplechase Family Physicians Clinic, and Dr. Tom Landholt in particular, represent a prototype for enterprise primary care practice. The role transition heavily relies on the EMR and other technology as tools in addition to general management principles, processes, and tools that span the functions and staff of Steeplechase. He adapted principles that drive service delivery across industries to create the clinician enterprise manager role and life style. The role comprises a paradigm shift in primary care practice delivery and associated professional training which indicates potential for clinicians adapting to and adoption of enterprise health care delivery.
