Gynaecologists and pediatricians willing to work in some of the state's remotest areas may soon pocket a monthly remuneration of nearly Rs2 lakh. Hit by an acute shortage of specialists, the state has floated a scheme to hire 500 doctors, who would not just earn a base salary of Rs50,000 to a lakh but get additional payment for each case examined or treated.
The public health department this week released advertisements to recruit gynaecologists, pediatricians and anesthetists for 65 centres, including rural, sub-district and district hospitals, in 15 districts. The doctors would have to run outpatient clinics, take ward rounds and be available for emergency calls during duty hours six days a week. Some can opt to offer emergency services only.
This scheme is not linked to the mandatory rural stint of doctors, which is separate.
The regions where the scheme would be rolled out have been divided into three grades (A, B and C) depending on the proportion of remoteness and difficulty in delivering services.
A gynaecologist willing to join a centre in a district under grade A will be given a base salary of Rs70,000 while those joining grade B and C centres would come under the slab of Rs60,000 and Rs50,000 respectively.
For pediatricians, the base salary is Rs1 lakh in a grade A centre, Rs85,000 in grade B and Rs75,000 in a grade C centre. Anesthetists would be paid Rs4,000 per case, irrespective of the surgery being a major or minor one.
