PUBLIC HEALTH 2Executive SummaryTalking of medical migration, it should be noted that this is the movement of medicalpractitioners or medical service providers from a country or a region to another. Suchmovements are, however, associated with issues regarding medical and public healthcareprovision. The same migrations also because challenges associated with national andinternational laws (AIHW Strategic Directions 2017). With increased levels of medical migration, an acute shortage of healthcare professionals hasbeen created globally. Nations across the world as well as global health movements have all beenaccused of contributing to the aforementioned shortages via their regulations, health policies, andlegislations. All have either directly or indirectly influenced medical provider migration. On thesame, microcosm responses that have been adopted by countries like Australia to curb suchissues as health workforce shortage has only increased global shortage of workers instead ofhelping curb the situation (AIHW Strategic Directions 2017). Australia has led to thedeterioration of the status quo via active recruitment programs. Such programs ensure that thecountry recruits as much as possible, foreign healthcare professionals. These programs aresupported by the availability of factors known as “push and pull” that out-rightly encourage themigration of medical providers. On the contrary, it is a national approach to policies of healthcare, legislation, and regulationsthat influence the amendment of these "push and pull” factors. Therefore, a global response thatis rather coordinated would be needed alongside individual nations being cognizant of whateverimpacts their regulations as well as health policies have on other global states on the same issue. With regards to the discussed issues, this research paper will solicit information pertaining to:
