While Karnataka has achieved the World Health Organizations (WHO) mandate 1:1,000 of doctor and people ratio, it needs to focus on improving this to reach 3 to 3.5 doctor per 1,000 population, which is the case in most developed countries, said B.N. Gangadharan, Chairman of National Medical Commission (NMC).
He was speaking at the 26th annual convocation of Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences (RGUHS) on Tuesday.
