Personally I feel that locum market will be shrinked significantly if MCR number required on MCs.. just wondering what will be the 2nd and 3rd order effect?
- more job opportunities for legal locums (i.e not nsf)?
- busier polyclinic and ed?
Or it could increase the demand for doctors including the loco ones.

Why?

The scam clinics cannot issue mc w/o doctor's MCR.

Mc will likely be reduced to 1-2 days.

Then, patients will need to come back for more.

Opportunity cost is too high.

1 year may be insufficient to conclude anything worth publishing.

Likely to be expensive charity work with limited returns.
