There are close to 2,50,000 General Practitioners in India who have no access to postgraduate education. Since the government has not mandated continuous education for physicians, most of the GP’s do not make much effort to remain up-to-date with the developments in the medical education.

The lack of continuous updating of the knowledge and skills by these GP’s has led to a situation where there are excessive referrals because they are not confident in handling cases even with the slightest complication.
