abstract: 'This paper analyses the system of financial and non-financial incentives
|
||||
|
||||
underlying job preferences of doctors in Bangladesh who work both in
|
||||
|
||||
government health services and in private practice. The study is based
|
||||
|
||||
on a survey of 100 government-employed doctors with private practice,
|
||||
|
||||
across different levels of care and geographical areas. In-depth
|
||||
|
||||
interviews were carried out in a sub-sample of 28 respondents. The study
|
||||
|
||||
explores the beliefs and attitudes towards the arrangements of joint
|
||||
|
||||
private/public practice, establishes profiles of fee levels and earnings
|
||||
|
||||
and examines the options to change the incentive system in a way that
|
||||
|
||||
ensures an increased involvement of dual job holding practitioners in
|
||||
|
||||
the priority areas of care.
|
||||
|
||||
Consultation fees were Tk120 on average (range Tk20-300) and found to be
|
||||
|
||||
correlated with the qualification of the practice owner and the type of
|
||||
|
||||
service offered. A majority of the respondents reported at least to
|
||||
|
||||
double their government income by engaging in private practice.
|
||||
|
||||
Significant predictors of total income included the number of patients
|
||||
|
||||
seen in private practice (p = 0.000), employment in a secondary or
|
||||
|
||||
tertiary care facility (p = 0.001) and ownership of premises for private
|
||||
|
||||
practice (p = 0.033). Age was found to be marginally significant (p =
|
||||
|
||||
0.084). No association was found between total income and
|
||||
|
||||
specialisation, private practice costs, level of government salary or a
|
||||
|
||||
degree from abroad.
|
||||
|
||||
The data suggest that doctors have adopted individual strategies to
|
||||
|
||||
accommodate the advantages of both government employment and private
|
||||
|
||||
practice in their career development, thus maximising benefit from the
|
||||
|
||||
incentives provided to them e.g. status of a government job, and
|
||||
|
||||
minimising opportunity costs of economic losses e.g. lower salaries.
|
||||
|
||||
Commitment to government services was found to be greater among doctors
|
||||
|
||||
in primary health care who reported they would give up private practice
|
||||
|
||||
if paid a higher salary. Among doctors in secondary and tertiary care,
|
||||
|
||||
the propensity to give up private practice was found to be low.
|
||||
|
||||
Financial incentives that aim to increase numbers of doctors in rural
|
||||
|
||||
areas, such as a non-private-practice allowance, are more likely to be
|
||||
|
||||
appreciated by doctors who are at the beginning of their career.
|
||||
|
||||
Improved training and career opportunities also appear to be of high
|
||||
|
||||
importance for job satisfaction. Policy changes to ensure a better
|
||||
|
||||
resource allocation to the priority areas of the health sector have to
|
||||
|
||||
reflect an understanding of the incentives generated by the
|
||||
|
||||
organisational and financial context within which dual job holding
|
||||
|
||||
practitioners operate. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights
