Brazil unveiled Tuesday a plan to hire 10,000 doctors to poor areas. The decision is part of wider reforms the government is doing amid protests against the level of public services. The decision includes hiring foreign doctors for the first time in Brazil. In addition to that, the government will make changes to curriculums that medical schools teach. Doctors graduating from Brazil starting 2015 must work for two years in the public sector. The government said that the scheme was modeled on health services in countries such as Britain and Sweden. Foreign doctors will only be used if there were no local ones available. President of Brazil Dilma Rousseff said that the primary goal of the scheme was to provide more medical services to the poorer areas of Brazil. The doctors hired under the new scheme will be paid a “stipend” of less than $4500.
