Abstract

This research article examines how to motivate the doctors to stay in rural locations. The study
observed the impact of ERG needs on CHC doctors’ intent to stay in rural Tamilnadu. A connection
was made between ERG needs and intent to stay. It is a cross-sectional analytical approach to collect
primary data from 318 doctors using a standardized questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale. ‘Growth
needs’ was shown to be the most important predictor of rural CHC doctors’ intent to stay. Researchers
and practitioners of public health can utilize this validated ERG instrument to investigate doctors’
motivation for rural posting in India.
