Govt launches review of GP supervisor funding
Supervisors have long claimed that taking on registrars is a loss-maker
GP supervisors will be asked if they are getting enough cash to compensate for the costs of teaching registrars, as part of a government-commissioned review of training.
The Department of Health says it wants to know whether GPs involved in supervising registrars are being disadvantaged, compared with those who bring medical students into their practices or do no supervision.
