Subspecialist training

(see above)

With current workload, KKM norms of  2.2 ortho specialists per 100,000 population are inadequate. It should be around 8 /100000. This however may change when the 1st batch of subspecialists completes their training in 2008-2009.

 

KKM norms;

Deficit of 286 ortho surgeons by 2008

Should be much more, > 500 at current rate.
