Court battle looms over junior doctors placements

Rehman Asad, NurPhoto via Getty Images A letter of demand last week gave the Department of Health until Monday to start the placement process.  The Department of Health blamed the placement delay on funding shortfalls and consultations about additional posts with National Treasury and provincial health departments. Department spokesperson Popo Maja said the consultation process with National Treasury is still ongoing and they are trying to source additional funding for 155 accredited posts. A court battle between the Department of Health and over 300 unplaced medical interns is looming. This after the department was served with a letter of demand on Thursday, giving them until Monday to provide community service placements.
