In a blow to lakhs of doctors across the country, the Medical Council of India (MCI) has barred all health universities from starting any post-graduate or post-doctoral certificate course this year(2013).
The PDCC courses can be done by doctors with an MD to enable them to perform specialized procedures. "For instance, a doctor cannot perform an angiogram unless she has completed this 18-month fellowship or the PDCC course.
ALL HEALTH UNIVERSITIES, DEEMED UNIVERSITIES and INSTITUTIONS LIKE IGNOU, IMA are barred from conducting post graduate certificate and fellowship courses.
Actually, The MCI should only monitor medical education and medical institutions. It shouldn't interfere in structuring of courses; that's not its job," .
when MCI,MOH,NBE are promoting and organizing the paramedic course like B.Sc community health course,what is the wrong with universities promoting most useful PG CERTIFICATE/FELLOWSHIP COURSES?
