Gandhinagar, Jan 24 (IANS) Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi announced Tuesday that doctors employed in government-run health centres would be allowed to practice privately.
Modi said here that doctors affiliated with primary health centres and community health centres could now attend to patients on a private basis too, said an official statement.
He was hopeful of the healthcare structure becoming efficient in remote regions of Gujarat following the freedom awarded to the doctors serving in government-run facilities.
The move will encourage more professionals in healthcare to serve rural areas and this would further help the government in filling vacant positions in the health centres, the statement said.
