Medical board regime for IMG supervision branded ‘unacceptable’
Doctors are working under the supervision of doctors who have no specialist training, it's being claimed

Under existing Medical Board of Australia rules, an IMG on limited registration can be supervised by any doctor provided they have “training and experience suitable to be a supervisor”.
