Abstract:
Among the 61 surveyed commune health stations (CHS) are staffed with medical doctors. Most of these physicians do not have enough knowledge on primary health care. Low salary and poor equipment are real constraints, thus it is difficult to encourage them to accept long-term working at CHS. The surveyors estimate that the performance quality of CHS staffed with medical doctors is about 20% higher than that of CHS without doctor.
