About this listen
A shake-up to GP trainee employment could make the pathway into general practice more appealing.
Health New Zealand will now directly employ all first-year trainees not already in private practice - with applications opening today for next year.
Currently, doctors must switch to being employed by the College of GPs.
Health Minister Simeon Brown told Ryan Bridge it’s been one of the barriers discouraging doctors from specialising as GPs.
He says they effectively become employees of the college and lose leave balances and other conditions - which is a challenge for recruitment.
