- Authors
Sivakumar, Jonathan; Crosthwaite, Gary
- Abstract
Accredited general surgical training in Australia has predominantly occurred in public hospital posts recognized by the Royal Australian College of Surgeons (RACS) and General Surgeons Australia. With the need for more general surgical training positions in Australia, the private healthcare system is a feasible avenue to develop more accredited posts. A successful model for incorporating the private sector within the accredited training scheme has been previously described.11 Currently, 12 accredited general surgical posts have been effectively implemented within the private hospitals in Australia.
