It appears so. It invariably harms the health of the people living in the affected area, and it definitely annoys the affected doctor to the degree of quitting or at least lieaving him in a mood of kicking shins - thus I would have expected that it would be strongly in the interest of public health - allegedly the very domain of DoHA - to remove any such procrastinating or ineffective bureaucrats and deploy them at offices where they can't do harm, that is if they can't do the right thing and rectify silly counterpoductive regulations in the first place. In my situation, I would have said that fair would be: - teh OTD gets a provider number tied to the Area of Need that is valid until either 10 years expire and the number becomes automatically a permanent one, or an Australian trained doctor applies for the location. The current ineffective way is just plain stupid (and costly). Whoever designed it, should be retired on grounds of mental diability.
