The idea of the Medical Education Department to put pressure on the absconding bonded medical officers has started yielding success as many of them have shown their willingness to re join State health services.
The Director General Health services Dr Archana Srivastava said that the department has released letter of reappointment to 52 bonded medical officers after they showed interest to rejoin the health services.
In a recent report submitted to the state administration, the department had mentioned that 218 doctors who had studied in the medical colleges of the state and have availed the benefit of subsidized fees structure after entering into a bond with State health department to serve in the state health services are traceless.
On the directive of the state administration, the department sent letters to these doctors asking them to rejoin or face legal action.
