Universities consider training
specialists
Reports that universities are considering training
specialists rather than leaving it to the specialist colleges is very welcome
news and follows the 1994 recommendations of a report by Peter Baume, a former
health minister and Liberal Party senator. In the face of continuing and
increasing shortages of specialists, especially in the public system, such a
move can only benefit those many Australians stranded on waiting lists
throughout the country.
