Quebec passes law requiring doctors to work in the public system for 5 years after med school. Doctors will also need to obtain special authorization to work in the private system (www.cbc.ca)

I was under the impression under-funding was the reason health care practitioners were avoiding the public space. I'm sure a "all stick, no carrot" strategy will work wonders though.

Interesting concept. Im far removed from the health sector, but wondering if this is a unique strategy or if it has been tried before elsewhere?

I think that's great!

Wow. A lot of doctors work in both Private practice and Public hospitals. I guess Quebec will be the new leader in Nurse Practitioner when all the doctors leave.
