Résumé:
This article shed light on the global impacts of physicians’ emigration on health and economy of both donor and recipient countries. Emigration fills the vacuum in labor shortages in destination countries by the active recruitment, however it may also provoke serious structural problems. Physicians’ emigration negatively influences health and economic system in source countries, while subsidizing the rich countries as they continue to deplete poor and developing countries from their health assets of human resources. There is an urgent need for policy makers in both regions to minimize the negative consequences resulted from this phenomenon and maximize advantages to achieve more equal and sustainable world. Resilient healthcare systems can be created for everyone by addressing the underlying issues and promoting international collaboration.
