The aim of the project was to evaluate the effect of the new rural allowance on the short-term career choices of health professionals in rural areas. A longitudinal cohort study design was used, before and after the introduction of the new allowance. The objectives of the study were therefore: To measure the extent to which rural health professionals reported that they are influenced to continue in their posts by the previous rural allowance and other factors; to measure the same perceptions after the introduction of the new rural allowance; to analyze the differences in responses; and to make recommendations based on the findings.
