Question: Discussion Assignment 4

Collaboration leverages the collective knowledge of a health care team. Peer evaluation and support, provided in the spirit of continuous improvement and organizational success, result in higher quality deliverables than those that are generally possible by the efforts of an individual.

Please describe the process that you plan to use to conduct research, identify findings, and develop the Comprehensive Project due in the next Unit 5, and present a brief outline indicating how you intend to organize the project deliverable. Please review the process and outlines of other students, providing objective feedback that will help strengthen the effectiveness of their efforts and the quality of the finished product.

Individual Project Assignment 4

The role of the physician has evolved significantly over the past 10 years. There has been an introduction of new physical roles at the hospital level, and primary care physicians have become little more than strategic gatekeepers. For this assignment, you will research and provide examples of how the traditional roles of physicians within health care have evolved over the past 10 years. Be sure to include expanded and minimized roles, private practice, large group practice, specialist, and hospital physician roles.

This should be 3-5 pages, excluding the cover page, abstract page, and reference page. You need to support your work with at least 4 academic or professional peer-reviewed sources published within the past 5 years.
