Family physicians in Nova Scotia are the latest group to benefit from the government's end-of-fiscal-year spending spree. Premier Stephen McNeil announced the deal Monday alongside Doctors Nova Scotia president-elect Dr. Tim Holland. Dr. Tim Holland is president-elect of Doctors Nova Scotia. According to Doctors Nova Scotia, about 80 per cent of family doctors currently keep e-health records. Doctors Nova Scotia estimates the raise, combined with the new incentives, could see family doctors receiving $20,000 to $30,000 more a year.
