The purpose of this position paper by the South African Academy of Family Physicians (SAAFPs) is to inform decision making on human resources for health policy in South Africa and the placement of family physicians (FPs) in the district health system. National policies have been marred by misunderstanding of the roles and contribution of FPs; and there is unhelpful variability in how FPs are positioned in the health services between provinces. In the private sector, medical aid schemes have discriminated against FPs by failing to remunerate them as specialists and to recognise their scope of practice.
本文是南非家庭医师学院的立场文件,旨在为南非卫生人力资源政策决策和家庭医师在地区卫生系统中的定位提供信息。国家政策对家庭医师的角色和贡献存在误解;各省对家庭医师在卫生服务中的定位存在无益的差异。在私营部门,医疗补助计划通过不向家庭医师支付专家薪酬和不承认其执业范围来歧视他们。
