NMC Denotifies Medical Education Regulations to Remove Overlapping Procedures, Maintains Standards
The National Medical Commission (NMC) has denotified the Maintenance of Standards of Medical Education Regulations, 2023, aiming to eliminate overlapping regulatory procedures without lowering medical education standards. The NMC clarified that academic standards and oversight remain under the Undergraduate and Postgraduate Medical Education Boards, while the Medical Assessment and Rating Board continues inspections and enforcement. Annual Disclosure Reports from medical colleges remain mandatory. This move follows judicial observations and seeks to align regulatory functions with the NMC Act, 2019.
