People best served by public medical education

IF medical schools are solely owned by the government, it can control the number of medical graduates produced each year by limiting the number of available seats. In this way, we can ensure that we don’t have too many medical graduates.

The quality of the medical graduates can also be ensured because the government can easily impose new and stricter criteria on the applicants. The government can also change the curriculum at medical schools to meet both the current and future needs of the country. This allows the government to spot and weed out incompetent graduates and unethical behaviour among doctors.
