Over 22,000 medical professionals fled Venezuela from 2012-2017 and sought jobs in other Latin American countries.
The influx of specialists in places like Chile, Argentina, Colombia, and Peru has helped address critical gaps in care—patients in poorer or rural communities wait months for special...ty care and surgeries have years-long waiting lists.

Venezuela’s uncertain future also means questioning how countries will cope if doctors decide to return home

Current and expected problems such as ageing, increased prevalence of chronic conditions and multi-morbidity, increased emphasison healthy lifestyle and prevention, and substitution for care from hospitals by care provided in the community encourage countries worldwide to develop new models of prima...ry care delivery. Owing to the fact that many tasks do not necessarily require the knowledge and skills of a doctor, interest in using nurses to expand the capacity of the primary care workforce is increasing.
