Doctors react: New regulation for family medicine

The new regulation change in the field of Family Medicine aims to comprehensively reorganize the duties, authorities, and responsibilities of family physicians and family health workers. The new Family Medicine regulation is being closely followed by many.

With the new regulation, the number of people per family physician will be reduced to 3,500, and new family medicine centers will be opened in areas with high population density.

The Ministry of Health aims to increase the effectiveness of chronic disease and cancer screenings by reducing the number of patients per physician. Family physicians will reach out to the individuals registered to them at least once every 6 months.

REACTION FOLLOWED

The Ministry states that the purpose of the new regulation is to reduce the burden on hospitals, but family physicians are reacting to the arrangement, claiming that there will be a decrease in their base salaries.

The Federation of Family Physicians Associations stated that salary payments are tied to patient satisfaction scores, declaring, "Deductions will be made from the salaries of family physicians who cannot receive 5 stars from their patients."
