7 countries where doctors are relatively plenty?

With about 98 countries of the world not having adequate doctors, it is notable to point out those that have them in relative abundance. Using the World Health Organisation minimum bench mark of one doctor to a 1,000 people, these countries have done well. Absolute number of doctors is less important than ratio which correlate more with access to care.

These countries are not the ones you are probably most likely expecting i.e the popular wealthy Western Europe, Americas or the  Asian Tigers or the Asian first World- Japan. Some are large countries others are small.


  • Qatar 7.739 doctors per population (data 2010). The Middle Eastern country has a population of 2,123,160 (July 2014 est.). Not bad for a GDP per capita of $102,100 (2013 est.). Kuwait another oil rich country have population of about 3.5 million but have 1.793 doctors per 1000 population.
 



  • Monaco 7.167 per population (data 2012). The little Western Europe has just 30,508 people.Certainly just 210 doctors would give you that kind of figure.The GDP per capita certainly is high income category-$85,500 (2011).


  • Cuba 6.723 per 1000 population (2010 data). The island neigbour of US and one of the few remaining communist country in the world. With low GDP per capita of $10,200(2010 estimate) it has not done badly. Guinea and Tunisia are in same population bracket as Cuba and also third World countries but they have 0.100 and 1.222 per 1000 population respectively. 


  • San Marino 5.133 per 1000 population (2012 estimate). Described as third smallest state in Europe and world oldest republic.With a population of 32,742 (July 2014 est.), 160 doctors would likely achieve that figure. It is good they have enough physicians to go round.

  • Austria 4.830 per population (2011 data). A Western European EU member with 8,223,062 people (July 2014 est.).She is a landlocked country with GDP expenditure on health of 10.6% of GDP (2011).

  • Greece 4.380 per population. A member of EU with 10,775,557 people (July 2014 est.) with $23,600 (2013 est.) (63 position in the world). The countries with similar population bracket as Greece include Belgium and Tunisia.  They both have 2.993(2011) and 1.222(2010) per 1000 population respectively.

  • Russia Federation 4.309 doctors per population(2006 estimate. The largest country in the World with land mass of 17,098,242 sq km former part USSR. The population of 142,470,272 (July 2014 est.) put it at 10th position in the world. Countries with comparable population with Russian Federation are Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nigeria but all with doctor estimate of 0.827(2010), 0.356(2011) and 0.408(2009) per 1000 population respectively.

Certainly these country needs to pointed out especially those that have higher population! It take effective policy execution to have that kind of figure.


Data are derived from World Health Organisation Health Workforce data , CIA data and Worldometers

Cuba,Physician exporter!

The name of the programme is Cuban medical internationalism where the country send doctors to other part of the world and brings medical students for training and patients for treatment in Cuba. That program made doctors one of the the most important export of Cuba. Teachers is another important human export.

According to World Bank data in 2010 she has 6.7 physicians per thousand, off course more than 2.7, 2.4 ,3.7 and 2.3   in United Kingdom, United States, Germany and Japan respectively. And minimum recommendation of World Health Organisation(WHO being one doctor per 1,000 person population Cuba definitely have enough to go around and share and the business would bring in about $6 billion in 2014 to Government according to Newsweek report.  .


Cuba's new Premier Fidel Castro (center) during a visit to 
Washington, DC, shortly after the January revolution in Cuba
According to Wikipedia, the country provides more medical personnel to the developing world than all the G8 countries combined. The program which has her root in the Castro anti-colonial stance and initiated first in Algeria when the French withdraw her medical personnels in 1963 giving birth to Cuba Physician -Export Industry when she sent a small medical team to help the country. She does not have this kind of medical manpower surplus then. Since then over 90 countries have benefited from the program through about 40,000 doctors. They are and were everywhere from Venezuela,Brazil, Haiti, Gambia to Nicaragua etc. They even made offer of 1,500 medical personnel to US during the Hurrican Kristina disaster but George Bush turned it down. In 2012, this human capital export saw to it that about 15,000 medical doctors work in about 66 countries word-wide.




All this while this probably did not win Cuba praise in the Developed World until the present mobilization to help fight Ebola in worst hit Western Africa countries then everybody start saying hi, good job Cuba for helping out! In last quarter of 2014 about 200 were sent to the region.

The Government subsidized medical schools on the island for both indigenes and non indigenes in process churning out these large number of doctors and in turn seek to export the surplus after having enough for domestic use.The economics does look good and have come under repeated criticism due to "exporting of professional commodity', recurrently occurring accusation that bulk of the money does not get to the workers but the State profiteering from human workforce. For example from the medical workforce sent to Venezuela around 2000, Cuba made approximately $3 billion paid for with crude oil. However the Government have been altruistic in many other countries where such endevour did not generate significant  political or economic returns.

Depending on the side you are you may appreciate the humanitarianism-intervention in international disasters, sending doctors where there are few doctors,intervening in broken Third World countries health system,attempt at offsetting the global medical workforce deficit or the bitter health workforce going through the subtle business process, and some do defect, an escape from organised slavery. Or in another vein the perceived threat to  local physician workforce.Certainly it would most likely generate reactions whatever the divide you are, it can even be seen as a human right issue.
