Abstract:
Objective:This paper summarizes the practical problems encountered in the implementation of the tuition-free medical students' policyin rural areas of Sichuan Province, and provides a reference for the implementation of this policy across the province. Methods :Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the principals of the orientation management policies of the health administrative departments and county level and primary health care in-stitutionsin Sichuan, and the focus group interviews were used to understand the dynamics of directed students. Results :The survey results showed that there were limited channels for students to understand the policy ; students' barren understanding of the work of grass-roots doctors ; credit and integrity files played a relatively low role in retaining medical talent students;the willingness of orientation students is higher, but there is a contradiction between applying for graduate students and retaining grassroots in rural areas ; and the relevant departments lacked a rational and efficient management mode for students. Conclusions :In order to ameliorate the construction of rural health human resources,policy administrators should place their emphasis on cultivating the sense of honor and responsibility in the rural-oriented tuition-free medical students'policy, improve the reward and punishment mechanism in policies, optimize the management and assessment process, and promote the orientation of the work among the various policy-participating departments in a more harmonious and orderly manner.
