With a budget estimated at 1.5 billion USD for the next decade, experts expected the medical training programme would meet the national targets in both quality and quantity.
The budget was part of draft master-plans on medical human resources development for 2010 and 2020, which were released at a recent conference in the presence of Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung.
The moves called for increasing the national medical training capacity from 24,000 graduates a year currently to 28,500 by 2015 and 36,000 by 2020.
Of the figures, university graduates would make up between 22 and 24 percent, according to the bills.
The 2020 scheme aims to spread the medical training network nationwide with at least 80 percent of provinces and cities being furnished with middle-level medical workers colleges.
The Ha Noi Medical University and the Ho Chi Minh City Medical and Pharmaceutical University will be upgraded into key institutions to train more graduates and post-graduates, estimated to be three times as much as the average capacity in graduate training and five-fold in post-graduate training.
Non-public institutions will make up 20 percent of the total medical graduates by 2020 against just 5 percent at present.
The funding for the programme will come from various financial sources, ranging from the State budget to foreign investments and private sectors, said the bills.
