This paper proposes that five main advantages can flow from an increase in the number of doctors in Australia. These advantages relate to: (1) improvements in the quality of clinical medical care; (2) a renewed emphasis on preventive medical care; (3) a more equitable, need-related distribution of doctors; (4) the ability of doctors to participate in regular professional up-grading programmes; and, (5) an increased capacity to participate in aid programmes within the South-East Asia region. It is argued that these positive factors should also be taken account of, along with the negative consequences, of an increase in the number of doctors in Australia.
本文提出，澳大利亚医生数量的增加可带来五个主要优势。这些优势涉及：（1）临床医疗质量的提高；（2）重新重视预防医疗保健；（3）医生按需求进行更公平的分配；（4）医生参与定期专业升级课程的能力；以及（5）参与东南亚地区援助项目的能力增强。有人认为，在考虑澳大利亚医生数量增加带来的负面影响的同时，也应考虑这些积极因素。
