VTV.vn - After 4 years implementing the trial programme to send young doctors to rural, mountainous and island areas, the first 7 doctors from the trial programme officially started their work in Dien Bien, Lao Cai, Bac Son and Son La provinces.

The project aims to improve the quality of healthcare services in disadvantaged localities to help erase outdated practices. According to a recent survey, these 62 poor districts need some 600 doctors. The ministry has partnered with the Ha Noi Medical University to devise a framework and detailed training curricula to attempt to address this shortfall.
