In india,we have    27,000 MBBS seats in  private sector.  out of this the management quota is 40% i.e. about 11000 seats.   The price of each Private MBBS seat varies from about Rs 60 lakh to  80 lacks. the total sale value of these seats is 8000 crores. In india,we have   5500 PG medical  seats in  private sector.  out of this the management quota is 40% i.e. about 2200  seats.   The price of each Private PG Medical seat varies from about Rs 1 crore to 3 crores. the total sale value of these seats is 3300 crores. So,the total private medical education business turnover in our country mounts to mind boggling 12000 crores,which is pure black money. Can our govt control this illicit flow of green bucks?

HC relief to docs: Clinics not under Shops & Est Act

Bringing relief to doctors running their clinics in the city, the Bombay High Court has ruled that no provisions of the Bombay Shops and Commercial Establishment Act, 1948, would be applied for running a medical practice. The bench, comprising Justice V M Kanade and Justice P D Kode, was hearing a petition filed by a doctor from Malabar Hill. The court struck down the provision of the Act as ultra vires (beyond the legal power), and declared it to be inapplicable for medical professionals and their clinics. The BMC had initiated criminal prosecution against several doctors of the city for failure to get their clinics registered under the Shops and Establishment Act. Many doctors pleaded guilty and paid the fine before the magistrate. Dr Kavita Tilwani, a consultant gynaecologist and obstetrician, had approached the HC challenging the BMC’s criminal proceedings, allegedly in violation of the Act. She disputed the applicability and constitutional validity of the Act, calling it ‘

Medicine needs another way.

Are the uniform protocols in disease management are healthy? By Dr.Srinivas Raju.C How the doctors and treatment of diseases  regulated  in India? In one sentence we can say, “The four pillars of the nation along with insurers are, trying to rope the medical profession to their stands. For every ailment they are trying to dictate what investigations a doctor can do?  What medicines a doctor should prescribe, how many days a doctor should admit the patient in a hospital, how much fees a doctor shall charge! Dictating the norms, dictating the management protocols to doctors. Everyone is trying to slave the doctor and bend the medical profession to suit their fancies. Is it the medicine?
