NMC flip-flop as patients & relatives can appeal against medical negligence
The New Indian Express Hubballi
|February 01, 2025
Course correction
IN a landmark decision, the National Medical Commission (NMC) has overturned its earlier verdict, which rejected the appeals of patients and their relatives to approach its ethics board against the decision of the State Medical Councils (SMC) regarding complaints of medical negligence and misconduct against doctors.
Going one step ahead, NMC also made it clear that if the SMCs fail to take action on any medical negligence complaint, its ethics board will take over.
The decision was taken in the 16th meeting of the NMC, an apex body that regulates medical education, medical professionals, and institutes, on September 23, 2024.
