Uganda Plans to Send its Doctors Abroad

Uganda Medical Association is in the process of registering a company to outsource doctors to other countries following the failure by government to absorb doctors in the country. Some of the targeted markets include Britain, Japan, Saudi Arabia, among others. Despite this move, Uganda still has an acute shortage of doctors in the health service.
