In this article I examine the phenomenon of international migration of medical graduates. The debate involving the ethical aspects of medical migration as well as the obstacles faced by doctors to practice unreservedly in their host countries are addressed. The situation of Australia in this context is also scrutinised. Finally, I propose a series of strategies aimed at minimising the unfavourable consequences of the international migration of doctors. This commentary favours a reform in the way institutions and society respond to the process of medical migration and to the needs of migrant doctors. Continued research on this health care topic is required in order to identify the major factors that play a role in this process.
在本文中,我探讨了医学毕业生国际迁移的现象。文中讨论了涉及医学迁移伦理方面的辩论以及医生在东道国毫无保留地行医所面临的障碍。同时也审视了澳大利亚在这方面的情况。最后,我提出了一系列旨在尽量减少医生国际迁移不利后果的策略。本评论主张对机构和社会应对医学迁移过程及移民医生需求的方式进行改革。为了确定在此过程中起作用的主要因素,需要继续对这一医疗保健话题进行研究。
