GP pathways & income in Australia

[@farkazmi12]

This video is really helpful Can you also make one on dermatology training for international medical graduates?

[@sammali2206]

There is a big dark side for international GPs in Australia as well. From getting bullied by their supervisor to high load of job and low income. The Australian government doesn't care about it as they are not Australian citizens. The funny thing is that most of the facilities that international GPs prescribe for their patients are not available for themselves as they are on temporary visas, including Medicare. My wife is getting abused every day by her supervisor and we have no place to even complain about it. Modern slavery.

Good evening doc , thank you for an informative video . I wanted to know if we can directly give PESCI after Amc 2 ( even if we don’t have 3 year’s experience) and do GP training directly instead of doing 47 weeks of hospital rotation for general registration. Kindly guide .

You can do Pesci anytime after amc 1 but experience component is important double check with GP clinic if you’re see a little short by a few month to make some allowance but if you have no GP experience then unlikely

Hello, thank you for all the information you keep providing. I had a query regarding the 19AB rule. Does the 10 year moratorium apply to all specialties or is it specific to GPs only?

[@EmergencyFocus]

For all specialities but for hospital doctors, rural placement does not work as most hospitals are urban and regional settings and if they need doctor, they NEED it so mostly GP trainees get to feel the pinch of 19AB/ 10 year mortatorium www.servicesaustralia.gov.au/overseas-trained-doctors-and-foreign-graduates-eligibility-requirements-for-medicare?context=34076

[@EmergencyFocus]

In Australia, International Medical Graduates (IMGs) subject to the 10-year moratorium typically need to work in a designated rural or regional area for a certain period to fulfill their visa conditions. However, specific pathways and requirements can vary based on individual circumstances, the type of visa, and changes in regulations. Consult the latest guidelines from the Australian Medical Council (AMC) for the most accurate and current information.

Never too late to follow your dream. Also, take one step at a time. Getting into the medical school is the first step 5 years medicine + 5 year surgery But life is full to cross roads and post graduate medicine is not 5+5 years ...if this would be the case everyone would be a surgeon. Don't think of numbers and begin your first task of getting into medical school, rest will unfold as life goes on

General practice has the biggest intake has long been the choice of IMGs in terms of training and career if not by initial choice then by default after failing to enter surgery or failing fellowship exams in ED, ICU and Medicine plus lots of IMGs are female who prefer GP for flexibility of it's work and options to work almost anywhere

So many inaccuracies in this video. Particularly the GP income. The figures and inferences are incorrect. I guess that this is because the writer does not work within Australian general practice.

[@pranavparmar8571]

Then what's the actual figures?

[@iankamerman6390]

1. Simple care. General practice provides complex care. It’s one of the hardest specialties. 2. The writer doesn’t quite explain Medicare and rebates correctly but I’ll let it go. 3. Very few practices would offer a fee of 25-30% as a service fee. They’d not be viable in the long term or would force doctors to provide rapid throughput. Average is more like 30-40%. 4. Tax advice is totally incorrect. Google Personal Services Income. 5. Income is not related to the number of patents seen but rather the type of service provided. 6. There are very few Medicare item rates that are different for rural areas. 7. The income he quotes is confused. Before tax you’d expect to earn $400000 to $700000. I only listened to the income chapter but with so many inaccuracies I’d expect the rest to be the same. Main problem he doesn’t mention is this is for an experienced Australian GP. It would take 2 or more years to get to this billing level provided you are in a supportive practice. If a practice churns patients through rapidly then assume you will get no support.
