Referring to the need to allocate the capacity of specialist doctors in deprived areas, a member of the parliamentary health commission said: “According to the existing upstream laws, there is a requirement to increase the admission capacity of assistants in deprived and less privileged areas, which is due to the low index.” Access to a physician in these areas is essential, and one of the key strategies for staying committed professionals in these areas is to use the localization method.

Mir Mohammadi added: “Currently, according to the existing laws, 30 percent of the assistantship capacity should be present in these areas, but this is while in our country and in some fields, this figure is not more than six percent.” Unfortunately, 24% of this capacity is empty today, and if the Ministry of Health takes serious measures to do so, it can easily help to compensate for the shortage of doctors in these areas.

Announcing that the parliament and the inspection organization of the whole country should get involved in this issue, the representative acknowledged: considering the current situation, the question should be asked and answered why the capacity of 30% of the quota of the deprived has not been absorbed.

Do.

Mir Mohammadi pointed out in the end: there should be no difference in terms of access to medical and health services in small and large cities, this justice should be established both quantitatively and qualitatively, the main solution of which is to increase capacity and Indigenization is based on the use of potential legal capacity.
