NMC Does Not Encourage Medical Practice Through Private Platform or Aggregators! this is the recent clarification by MOH of India.is it not retrograde? let us see... what &how is online practice and the role of various facilitators? Though these online aggregators have been there even before the pandemic, pandemic lockdowns perpetuate these IT enabled platforms into lime light . The comfort of getting various medical services from the home is the usp of this revolution. The  post-pandemic era has seen a Healthtech revolution that lagged for over two decades. Healthtech start-ups and government initiatives strive hard to provide primary and advanced healthcare services in rural India. The advent of technology addresses the three main pillars of healthcare – Healthcare access and delivery, affordability, and quality.  primary and specialist consultations, second opinions, at home lab services, lab on chip and hub&spoke models, home nursing, post hospital rehabilitation, some of t

Even India has an exam (FMGE) which doctors from other countries need to give.  The catch is some countries waive off licensing exams for certain people.
