The government has decreed that the 2,356 medical residents who work throughout the country will receive, as of Tuesday, a bonus of RD$5,000 as an incentive for continuing to improve their education. According to Health Minister Bautista Rojas Gomez, these resources will also enable medical residents to obtain books or other tools that will contribute to improving their knowledge in their areas of specialization.
The bonuses will be given out twice this year and then they will be included next year's Health Ministry budget, with a view to handing them out every month. Dr. Enriquillo Matos, a former president and currently a candidate for the presidency of the Dominican Medical Association (CMD), who had suggested the idea in the first place, said that the fact that the ministry was going to make it a reality was a great step forward for the sector.
