“…Although the number of physicians per unit population is increasing in most developed countries, increasing the physician-to-population ratio does not necessarily improve the unequal distribution of physician to population ( 5 , 10 ).

Így a munkaerőhiány miatt az emberi erőforrás gyakran "a leggyengébb láncszem" az egészségügyi rendszerben (Pál et al 2021). Az orvosokkal való megfelelő ellátottság nélkül az egészségügyi szolgáltatás alapvető céljai nem érhetők el, és a nemzetek egészsége is veszélybe kerülhet (Sargen et al 2011).…”
