Meeting GP IMIT Needs: the challenge for Division #Discussion Paper (full text version of a PD workshop for IT Officers at the IMIT Forum, Darling Harbour, Sydney: Feb, 2000) by Catherine Pleteshner.

One of the greatest challenges for Divisions of General Practice is to meet the information technology management needs of doctors. In the context of general practice, information management and information technology (IMIT) refer to all that is involved in both introducing and using computers for a range of practice management and clinical purposes. This paper describes how one Division IMIT Program, when responsive to local needs, can provide a range of benefits for its doctors.
