Retiring GP’s can’t even *give away* turn key practices. I’m not sure what the issue with attracting GP’s is. Probably money.
Matt.
it's more attractive to specialize in something vrs being a general GP, owning a practice you do take on the risks and paperwork that come with running the business, it also locks you down.. you can't really move since you have thousands of patients depending on you, or go on an extended leave... there is also better money and more learning opportunities in specializing (and it can also be alot more interesting then being a GP monitoring peoples day to day needs and seeing endless colds)
this might just be the new way of the future.. the government runs the facility and the practice where the doctors are the employees, you can request to see a specific doctor but you could be looked at by any doctor within the practice (similar to a walk in clinic) and if a doctor leaves the records all stay with the clinic
