This follows a bargaining agreement signed with the Doctors Union in October last year.
Before the promotions, KMPDU and the County Government had been involved in negotiations culminating in an agreement.
Doctors in the County will be placed in Job Group P up from N.
The County Public Service Board has also confirmed six Doctors that have been on probation while two doctors have been working on Job Group M to N.
