Having more government involved in any part of this won't fix anything. People need to want to be in more rural areas. Making grads be in a certain place for x years, meeting specific quotas, making new laws, etc will only have the opposite effect. Less government, less taxes, less regulation fixes all things. When the free market can decide where, when, how, and how much then things society will find a way to make it work. Government creating artificial scenarios never works.

Thank you for reading and adding your perspective. In this particular case, I share your point of view. Forcing a doctor who would rather practice in a big city to move to the country is probably not going to work in the long run. There are many other options (e.g. empowering nurses and setting up a PA system) that would probably be more effective.
