The All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, is a world-renowned public medical research university and hospital in New Delhi, India. The AIIMS Act of 1956 governs the institute, which operates independently under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

AIIMS’s Objectives are to establish a pattern of teaching undergraduate and postgraduate medical education in all of its branches in order to demonstrate a high standard of medical education to all Indian medical colleges and other allied institutions.

Bringing together world-class educational facilities in one location for the training of personnel in all critical areas of health care.

Self-sufficiency in postgraduate medical education.

The Indian government has pushed private hospitals to create medical courses in order to increase the number of medical schools and boost medical education in the nation. During a recent meeting with Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya, over 60 large private institutions were asked to offer medical courses. Around 20 of the 62 hospitals that participated are expected to begin courses this year.

Many of the hospitals, according to authorities, have already filed their applications, and those that pass inspection will accept students beginning with the current academic year. Breach Candy, Amrita Hospital, Medanta, Reliance Hospital, and Satya Sai were among the hospitals represented during the meeting.

Previously, private hospitals were unwilling to train students, but now many of them have consented to do so.

With specialised services at hospitals, most would start by training PG students. “However, some will launch both UG and PG courses,” stated a source close to the situation.

The hospitals’ hesitation resulted from burdensome paperwork and standards regarding land and infrastructure needs. However, the government has recently altered some of the rules in order to encourage more hospitals to offer medical courses.

The National Medical Commission (NMC), the primary medical education authority, published a draft notification last year that permitted hospital chains with prior experience running medical schools to launch additional schools elsewhere without waiting for the hospitals to become established. According to current regulations, a medical college with a 300-bed hospital can be formed only after it has been in operation for two years.

According to authorities, such a concession would allow the newly created Amrita Hospital in Faridabad to begin courses immediately, given that it already operates a well-established hospital and medical college in Kochi. The change is intended to boost the number of UG and PG seats, which have almost doubled in the previous nine years.

Medical schools have been required to use a system, such as CCTV cameras, biometric attendance, and AI, to monitor the number of patients and teachers present. The NMC has previously ordered that all medical schools install 25 CCTV cameras in critical areas and implement a biometric attendance system.

Officials believe that relaxing standards will have no influence on the quality of medical education. There have previously been claims that medical institutions merely brought in the appropriate number of patients and academic members during inspections. The government’s actions are aimed at boosting openness and ensuring that medical colleges meet the appropriate criteria.

Tirupati: The National Medical Commission (NMC) has granted permission for 83 additional postgraduate medical seats at Sri Venkateswara Medical College (SVMC), Tirupati, bringing good news to medical aspirants in Andhra Pradesh.

According to Dr. PA Chandrasekharan, Principal of the Medical College, these additional postgraduate medical seats have been added in the eleven specialty and super-specialty departments.

As a result of the NMC’s approval, the college now has 226 PG medical seats in total. Furthermore, the college has submitted proposals for seven additional seats in the Surgery Department, and if approved by the Commission, the number of PG seats will increase to 233.

Sri Venkateswara Medical College, located in Tirupati, was founded in 1960. It has 240 undergraduate and 146 postgraduate medical seats in total.

The Central Government approved 630 additional PG medical seats at 11 Andhra Pradesh medical colleges last year. The Centre’s approval came after the State Government requested an increase of 688 PG medical seats.

At the time, the Union Government approved the addition of 75 medical seats to SV Medical College in Tirupati.

According to a recent media report by The Hans India, the apex medical education regulatory body NMC has now granted the medical college permission for an additional 83 PG medical seats in 11 specialty and super specialty departments.

The NMC’s approval came after the commission’s teams inspected the college and Ruia Hospital. Following the inspection, the NMC teams were pleased with the services and educational quality.

College vice-principals Dr. Vasundhara Devi and Dr. Venkateswarlu applauded the Commission’s decision to increase the number of PG medical seats. While commenting on the matter, Dr. PA Chandrasekharan, principal of the medical college, stated that this is the first time in the college’s history that it has received permission for such a large increase in seats at one time.

Vijayawada: The Dental Council of India (DCI) has granted permission for 15 additional MDS seats in five disciplines at the Government Dental College, Vijayawada, which is good news for postgraduate dentistry aspirants in Andhra Pradesh.

The Union Health Ministry (dental education) informed the GDCH principal in a letter about the approval of these 15 extra seats for the next academic year, 2023–2024.

According to TNIE, these seats include three each in the departments of orthodontics, prosthodontics, paediatric dentistry, oral medicine, and oral pathology for speciality courses like orthodontics and dentofacial orthopaedics, prosthodontics and crown and bridge, orthodontics and dentofacial pathology, and preventive and paediatric dentistry.

Nine MDS places were formerly available at the institution, with three each in the departments of periodontology, conservative dentistry, and oral surgery starting in 2010.

According to the most recent media report by the New Indian Express, DCI approved after examining the college’s facilities back in September 2022. Following the inspection, the DCI authorities acknowledged their pleasure with the college’s facilities and approved the college for 15 MDS seats.

The head of the dental college, Dr. Kolasani Srinivasa Rao, congratulated the director of medical education (DME), Dr. Vinod Kumar, and the principal secretary of health, MT Krishna Babu, for the news.

“The DME has promised to provide equipment, such as dental chairs and machinery, on behalf of the government. We currently treat 300 outpatients per day. With the addition of 15 MDS seats, we will be able to treat 150 more patients per day,” he stated.

He also thanked members of the Dental Council, Dr. Mehboob Sheikh and Dr. Satish Kumar Reddy, for their assistance throughout the process.

More students from the state will now be able to pursue a specialisation in the two government colleges of the state rather than getting admitted to the private dental colleges, says Dr. Mehaboob Shaik, YSRC Doctors Wing zonal in-charge of Krishna, Guntur, and NTR districts, who also welcomed the approval of additional seats.

CM Jagan Mohan Reddy was thanked by the president of the YSR Congress Medical Wing, Dr. Ambati Naga Radhakrishna Yadav, who also indicated that 50% of the new PG dental seats would remain open for the benefit of BC, SC, ST, and minority students’ economic and social growth.

Results of Sister Recruitment for DRRMLIMS 2023: On Sunday, the results of the Lohia Institute’s nursing recruitment exam were released. Within 24 hours of the exam, the administration of the recruitment institute released the results.

After two to three days, the assessment of the candidates’ educational records will begin.

The chosen candidates will thereafter receive their appointment letters. Candidates can access the direct link provided here to view their results on the official website https://drrmlims.ac.in/. 

The Lohia Institute is currently undergoing regular recruitment after around ten years.

For 431 positions, a recruitment exam for nurses was held.

The nurse recruitment exam was conducted on Saturday at 33 centres across the state, according to institute head Dr. Sonia Nityanand.

In total, 8300 individuals were scheduled to take the test. There were over 4,000 candidates who participated. Earlier, 92 locations around the nation hosted the recruitment exam. The test was administered by Gujarat’s Edutest Agency.

Other issues included the centres’ computers and energy. Candidates who were upset made a scene. After conducting an investigation, the institute administration decided to cancel the test of 18 centres due to confusion. On Saturday, a second exam was administered. All of the chosen candidates have been congratulated by director Dr. Sonia Nityanand. He stated that after reviewing the educational and experience certifications, appointment letters would be distributed.

The Graduate Medical Education Regulations have been revised by the National Medical Commission (NMC) (GMER). In light of this, candidates are required to select their chosen college during the counselling process for MBBS admission.

The Graduate Medical Education Regulations have been revised by the National Medical Commission (NMC) (GMER).

Under this policy, students would only be able to select their favourite college at the initial round of counselling for MBBS admission. It is thought that this move was made in order to guarantee that every seat is taken during the three rounds of online counselling.

On the draught, opinions from numerous stakeholders have been requested. Last year, 352 BSC Nursing seats, 1280 BDS seats, and 4299 MBBS seats remained unfilled despite three rounds of online counselling. Rounds 1 and 2 are followed by the measurement-up round.

The fourth stray round, which would not be conducted online, would then be completed. Following this, complaints of process disturbances have been made.

English remains a required subject. Despite the fact that many states, including Madhya Pradesh, are encouraging medical education in Hindi, English is still required in class 12 in order to take the NEET UG exam.

Transfer in exceptional situations: Under certain conditions, a student may transfer from one government institution to another during their first year, but only from one non-government college to another non-government college.

According to the updated draught on equal NEET scores, a procedure has been put in place when multiple candidates receive the same result. According to this, the subjects with the highest scores in biology, chemistry, and physics will be used as the foundation. There will be a computer draw if this choice is also not made.

CMAT 2023 correction window will open from tomorrow, March 14 till March 16. Candidates will be able to edit the application form at cmat.nta.nic.in.

CMAT 2023 important dates

Kolkata: In a significant move, the West Bengal Clinical Establishment Regulatory Commission (WBCERC) has instructed hospitals that there will be no additional consultation fee assessed for up to 15 days after the date of the initial consultation for displaying test results requested by the doctor in the outpatient department (OPD).

This occurred after the commission brought to light the unfair treatment of OPD patients in clinical settings, noting that they had previously had seven days to present the report or findings of the investigations to the consultant or treating physician.

According to the commission, if patients did not return with reports as instructed by the doctor within 7 days, they would be compelled to pay the whole consultation fee for providing test results or investigation results to the doctor as of the eighth day.

“Due to our observation that some private hospitals are now charging the whole consultation price if the patient does not return to exhibit the reports within 7 days, even though there was previously no fee for consultation of test results ordered by the doctor, we have released advice number 33. A complaint over the matter was submitted on February 27, 2023, and the committee noted that, particularly in situations involving several investigations and testing, it can take some time for tests to be carried out and results to be received.” The WBCERC’s chair and former judge, Ashim Banerjee, explained

Continuing, he said, “This period of time is quite brief. The reports are frequently inaccessible, necessitating the patient party to pay for a second session just to view the reports or investigative findings. We determined that it was acceptable to allow the patient at least 15 days to return for the consultation in light of this.”

The committee recently decided that the patient party would not be charged an additional cost if the reports or results of the tests the doctor requested were submitted within 15 days after the appointment.

However, as the WBCERC also stated in the advisory while also allowing an extension for test result consultation, this will not stop the clinical establishments from asking the patient party to show the report/results of the investigational Consultant/doctor as soon as they are available in the patient’s interest of timely treatment.
